  Fighting climate change

  We make sure that we recycle where we can and take appropriate modes of transport to get to clients. Our offices in Darlington and Glasgow are easily accessible by public transport meaning that many of our colleagues go to an office by these means. For other colleagues, we offer remote working, and colleagues are able to attend an office when they need We are pricing our services to encourage customers to prefer remote access and remote working where possible. One of Sapphire staff is undertaking a part time PHD studying the carbon consequences of cyber crime and it’s mitigation which is inclusive of Sapphire customers and partners.

  Covid-19 recovery

  We have encouraged our staff back to office working especially in the SOC which runs 24*7 shift patterns. We have recently engaged in local communities by hiring space in local charity buildings for company meetings as in house face to face meetings. We have performed pro-bono work with charities to check their security status and help them move onwards from Covid in the face of increased cyber attacks on charities.

  Equal opportunity

  We have an Equal Opportunities policy which everyone in Sapphire adheres to. We are currently at 29% of females in our organisation, a number that has grown over the last few months. Our recruitment processes allow us to interview the best people for the roles we have available, and we insist on 50:50 short-lists for all roles. We value the views of others and see as a strength our openness to challenge. We employ military reservists, and are supportive of their overseas deployment commitments on behalf of HM Government. Recently we have signed documentation to join the NCSC Cyber First scheme to help young people especially women and girls to join the ranks of cyber professionals. We also mentor young people who are keen to move into cyber at some stage in their career.

  Wellbeing

  We take the wellbeing of our colleagues seriously; we offer an Employee Assistance Programme, have health cover, a pension scheme and Life Cover. We also provide opportunities for colleagues to Give Back to local projects/schemes and they can use a day a year to do this.
