Diversity, Equity and Inclusion at CIL

By CIL Management Consultants

At CIL, we are passionate about building a successful team of people from a wide range of backgrounds. Helping our clients grow requires creative thinking and fresh perspectives. To deliver this we need a diverse workforce of exceptional individuals.

DEI at CIL

Led by our DEI team, CIL aims to foster an inclusive work environment where everyone has the opportunity and support needed to develop and progress in their careers. Our activities in this area are constantly evolving and cover training, networking and outreach to underrepresented groups.

“A focus on diversity and inclusion not only makes us a more interesting and enjoyable company to work for, but it also makes us a more effective partner for our clients as they look to drive growth and build value in a complex and diverse world.” - Tabitha Elwes, DEI lead

CIL is committed to…

  • Creating and maintaining a culture where every employee feels included and respected.
  • Countering discrimination through our recruitment, training processes and our interaction with other stakeholders.
  • Celebrating the diverse contributions of all our employees and stakeholders.

Initiatives

We have a range of initiatives that support us in ensuring our colleagues can thrive, develop and reach their full potential.

DEI Insight Days

Each year we host Women in Consulting and upReach Insight Days, where attendees can hear from individuals throughout the company about what it’s like to work in management consulting and life at CIL.

“The Women in Consulting Day allowed me to talk to women who work at CIL and get their honest opinions on their experience of the sector and the company. It was great to meet women at all stages of their careers and hear about how CIL tries to ensure it is a great company for women to work for.” - Consultant

upReach

CIL is proud to support upReach, a charity focused on boosting social mobility. As an employer partner, we provide insight days, mentorship, work experience, internships and job opportunities to talented and highly driven university students from all backgrounds.

Career Progression

CIL regularly runs leadership seminars with people from diverse backgrounds so that employees can meet and hear about the experiences of our senior colleagues and prompt discussion about DEI topics.
