Find where you thrive

Pride Month has came to an end, but our commitment to inclusion, belonging and celebration continues all year round. We are proud to have ranked fourth in the Inclusive Top 50 UK Employers Index, making us the highest ranked water company nationally. This recognition reflects our ongoing work to embed equity, diversity and inclusion across everything we do. Throughout June, we’ve loved supporting Pride events across Salford, Blackburn and Halton, spending time with customers and communities and having conversations about saving water, what to not flush and our BIG North West Upgrade. More importantly, it’s been about listening, connecting and celebrating what makes our communities so diverse and vibrant. Pride is not just a month in the calendar for us. It is part of how we work every day with colleagues, customers and partners, ensuring everyone feels seen, respected and included. Next up, we’ll be at Wigan Pride and the Manchester Pride Parade, continuing to show our support and celebrate with communities across the North West!

Mott MacDonald has been recognised as an Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) leader at this year’s NCE Awards. What makes this recognition especially meaningful is that it reflects the culture Mott MacDonald is continuing to build and strengthen across the organisation. EDI isn’t treated as a standalone initiative. It’s embedded in how the business thinks, leads and delivers - shaping decisions, supporting colleagues and driving better outcomes for clients and communities. While significant progress has been made, there is a continued commitment to listening, learning and challenging the status quo to create an even more inclusive environment. This recognition is a testament to the collective efforts of people across the business and the positive impact that inclusive leadership and culture can have both within teams and beyond.

⭐ Supporting people in commission-earning roles on Family Leave⭐ Gearset have just introduced a market leading benefit in the UK to support our commission-earning team members while on maternity, adoption, or shared parental leave. From June 2026, enhancements will now be calculated on average earnings (OTE) using the prior 12 months. We recognised the huge financial penalty that comes with growing a family in OTE based roles where enhancements only include base salary, and we didn't think that was fair. So we've changed it. Check out our open Sales roles or reach out for a chat with the team by emailing jobs@gearset.com. 💛
