Diversity makes beyond possible
Our vision is to have a diverse and engaged workforce, across all areas of the business, who believe that everyone has equality of opportunity, is respected and respectful, with everyone treated fairly and consistently.Â
Our Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) Approach
Sponsored by our Chief Executive Officer, our EDI strategy is separated into four pillars, each with a clear theme, and a set of deliverables.
“We’re building our business on diversity. Our inclusive culture is a place where all creative, curious, and intelligent minds are welcome. Where different backgrounds, approaches and points of view are championed.
Together, there’s no limit to where we can go.”
Mark Thomas,
Chief Executive Officer

Actions that make a difference
At Reaction Engines, we believe in allyship and strive to ensure that the actions we take genuinely make a difference. For us, this means making theory become reality and identifying AND removing barriers to equality.
How we do it
Increasing our awareness through perspective-led learning
We promote an open culture, where learning is encouraged through considerate dialogue. We listen to others’ perspectives and call in non-inclusive behaviours.Â
Showing up and advocating for others
We recognise the value of different viewpoints and encourage those who feel unheard. We listen to understand, champion others, and practise empathy.Â
Supporting projects in the local community
We use our passion to engage in community and STEM outreach and believe everyone has the right to pursue the career they desire, recognising that action is necessary to address inequality.Â
