We value diversity at Oakton. Drawing on the ideas and experience of employees from all backgrounds helps us to deliver better business outcomes for our clients, while sustaining our position as a market-leading organisation.

The ability to share ideas while respecting and valuing different perspectives promotes innovative solutions. We aim to maintain a collaborative working environment that attracts and retains the best people, enabling them to realise their potential.

We are driven to:

• Ensure that every employee is treated fairly and with respect
• Value differences and the contribution of all employees to business success
• Create an environment where people can excel without encountering bias or being hampered by race, age, gender, lifestyle choices, religion, culture or disability
• Ensure all employees and applicants are treated and evaluated according to their job-related skills, qualifications, abilities and aptitudes

As an inclusive organisation, we are also strongly focused on gender diversity. We have established a leadership and business network for women who work at Oakton, called OaktonFAB (Females Achieving Business).

With strong support from women at Oakton, together with our Executive Team, the aim is for this to become a national network going forward.
