Fighting climate change
Cadence Innova is committed to a low carbon future, building on our 15-year track record of sustainability to our current position of Net Zero. We have signed up to the SME Climate Commitment, recognising that climate change poses a threat to the natural world, the economy and society-at-large. The pandemic brought new opportunity to consider our approach, working together with clients to minimise activity with an environmental impact, and defining a low carbon future enabled by digital technology. Already in places is: Public transport by default, and no company cars. A policy of ‘no flying’ when there are alternative public transport options. Internal procurement policies based upon our responsible sourcing strategy, requiring assurance from all suppliers on sustainability, including Carbon emissions . Active participation in a Cycle Scheme, encouraging our members to cycle to work . A non-paper, digitally based, shared office environment . Laptops for our consultants, not desktop device. An offset scheme, run by a specialist not-for-profit established to assist SMEs in offsetting their carbon footprint. Ongoing, policy development and member induction and training will ensure we are maintaining our commitment to minimising environmental impact. The whole ESG agenda is measured and monitored at leadership level. - Equal opportunity

Equal opportunity
Cadence Innova is made of people: what we do is, literally, who we are. Each Cadence person brings their unique contribution to our collective work. What unites us is our shared commitment to our values. and desire for positive social impact.
Cadence people come from many different social, educational and professional backgrounds, and we understand that our value for clients comes from the richness of thought, background and experience that diverse hiring achieves. Key to this is knowing that the ability to analyse and solve complex issues and build great relationships can be found in any number of places, so Cadence people come from education, management, the armed forces, automotive, retail, Government, financial services and more. It also helps to have addressed some of the biggest barriers to equality that traditionally exist: at present over 70% of leadership and management positions are held by women and we are proud to have been the path back to work for a number of people who were out of the workplace for some time.
Cadence is a signatory to the Tech Talent Charter, a non-profit organisation leading a movement to address inequality in the UK tech sector and drive inclusion and diversity in a practical and uniquely measurable way. We are also an Industry Partner of Durham University’s TechUp Skills Bootcamps, through which TechUp continues its mission to empower the underserved and those in minority groups such as people of colour, those with disabilities, LGBTQ+ and those with dependants - Wellbeing

Wellbeing
When your people are literally what defines your business, the matter of wellbeing is high up the list of priorities. Of course, it’s not one size fits all: everyone’s needs are different and everyone’s circumstances are different, so we look at this as creating the mental and physical conditions for a healthy, happy working life. Life doesn’t stop when work starts. We make this real through our People Strategy. Appropriately supported, self-directed professional development; proper conversations; an innate understanding that modern life is all about the balance of competing priorities, and a deep belief in ability and potential. These are all underpinned by the default position of trust. We know that a successful, happy working life is one that’s manageable and sustainable, so our responsibility is to making this achievable for everyone.
