Covid-19 recovery

Covid-19 recovery

Since March 2020, Made Tech refused to furlough any employees and has accelerated recruitment, quadrupling in size to over 450 staff.

We’ve supported COVID-19 recovery, including:

Developed the NHS Virtual Visits tool, enabling patients to meet loved ones virtually. This has been rolled out to multiple NHS trusts.

Tackling economic inequality

Tackling economic inequality

In every delivery, we consider where added value and benefit, in relation to social, economic and environmental aspects could be delivered to the local communities in which we are working.

We deliver benefits to the local community through our regionalisation focus, that mirrors the levelling up agenda, our academy and by mentoring and upskilling MCA teams.

Our regional strategy supports the UK Government's decision to move from London, help businesses create better, higher-paying jobs and develop skills across the country.

Through regionalisation, we grow local talent, increase local employment opportunities, and boost regional economies.

We run a salaried, 12-week Academy, producing our own experts, and addressing the skills shortage in the software sector. Our Academy promotes diversity in technology by recruiting those new to the industry and from underrepresented groups. Previous intakes have been >50% female and represent a wide spectrum of cultures, ethnicity and backgrounds (e.g. not university educated, no previous technology employment).
Equal opportunity

Equal opportunity

We believe teams reflecting the cultural diversity of society think and bring together different perspectives, increasing motivation by producing superior services for everyone.

We monitor D&I efforts through our internal census & survey:
D&I community drives policy/issue escalation transparently with members from exec, management,rotating members
Internal community groups Women in Tech, LGBTQ+, Neurodiversity, Parents/Carers
Events/talks/podcasts/interviews eg understanding the trans experience; promoting Black History Month
12-week Academies w/£25k+salary for engineering, design, research & data, sourcing candidates from underrepresented & non-university backgrounds UK wide.
Sponsor & mentorship programme increasing diversity at SFIA4+ to raise number of women in billable and non-white ethnic groups in senior roles
Unconscious bias training
6-monthly data publication & analysis of D&I at management level, gender & ethnicity pay gaps, & satisfaction by demographic
Publicly sharing D&I commitment/investments

We’re a Disability Confident Employer, and ensure diversity by working with diversity-focused communities (Black Girl Tech, Coding Black Females, Codebar, Hire STEM women) and specialist job boards. We use gender decoder software on job adverts to ensure gender-neutrality and have worked to ensure our interview panels are as diverse as possible.

By over-representing underrepresented groups and celebrating diversity across our organisation we build motivated teams who use diversity as a strength.
Wellbeing

Wellbeing

Made Tech emphasises wellbeing as a key part of its culture and Employee Value Proposition. We have implemented the 6 standards in the Mental Health at Work commitment and work with our partners to share practices and learnings. We are bold in our pursuit of wellbeing to boost the happiness, health and satisfaction of our teams, as well as making a meaningful, positive impact on the health and wellbeing of our clients and partners; we strive to understand each client’s support landscape ensuring that we are able to signpost or offer support accordingly. Every individual has regular 1:1s with a line manager including a wellbeing discussion. We have Mental Health first aiders on our team, and provide confidential counselling services, maintain a no-blame culture and have a wellbeing slack channel for the team to share self-care ideas.

We consider the culture and working practices of a client before deploying a team, recognising any personal ethical boundaries. Retrospectives and Delivery Assurance account health checks are also used to surface any misalignment or wellbeing issues in deliveries. Our company details our welfare practices. After a period of rapid growth we are assessing how best to implement Voluntary reporting on disability, mental health and wellbeing.

We track employee data around sickness, L&D time, holiday (we provide unlimited holiday) and regularly conduct happiness surveys, tracking improvements as we learn more.
