Recently, we had the privilege of hosting Geeta Malhotra at our London office for an eye-opening discussion on Sustainability Awareness.   We explored real-world examples of how different sectors and geographies are responding to evolving regulations, where accountability is resting—and the varied approaches companies are taking.   Our team came away energised with fresh insights on how service-based businesses can make a positive environmental impact. It was a truly collaborative, engaging session that sparked new ideas and deeper understanding.   As responsible recruiters, we are committed to continuously expanding our knowledge of the environmental and social challenges shaping the world of work—so we can better serve our team, clients, and candidates. #Sustainability #ESG #ResponsibleRecruitment
