Phoebus highlights DE&I commitment in new ESG report

Published on

Phoebus Software, the mortgages and savings account servicing technology provider, has demonstrated its commitment to diversity and employee wellbeing with the release of its latest ESG report.

The company says it continues to create an environment where every individual can thrive, due to its focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DE&I), employee engagement, and wellbeing.

“We believe that our people are our greatest asset, and their wellbeing and development are paramount to our success,” said Kate Langton (pictured), chief people officer at Phoebus.

“By prioritising DE&I, engagement, and employee support, we are shaping a workplace where everyone has the opportunity to excel.”

Phoebus’ workforce comprises 33% female employees, 1.5% non-binary employees, and 40.5% from ethnic minority backgrounds, which are above industry averages in the tech and financial services sectors.

The company supports workplace inclusivity through family-friendly policies, flexible working arrangements, and a menopause support programme, ensuring that employees feel valued and respected.

Phoebus says it continues to invest in talent development, offering leadership training, ITIL certifications, and Udemy courses, with a new Learning Management System (LMS) to further improve career growth opportunities.

With a 90% participation rate in its annual engagement survey, Phoebus employees regularly demonstrate high satisfaction, with external benchmarking placing the company just four points away from an ‘outstanding’ engagement level.

In addition, employees benefit from a wellbeing programme, including private healthcare, mental health support, and access to resources such as the Calm app and mental health first aiders. Additional benefits include quarterly health webinars, a wellbeing allowance, and acupressure massage services.

Phoebus has also introduced a flexible benefits platform, increased annual leave, implemented a flexible bank holiday initiative as well as providing rewards and recognition for long service and achievement.
