Employment – for ourselves

We employ people purely on the basis of merit. Our procedures clearly define the role profiles and competencies of every post, together with the associated level of responsibility.

We support our people in ways appropriate to their personal and professional circumstances. Whether, for example, a specific training programme, flexible working hours or remote working, we ensure that each employee has the maximum opportunity to fulfil their potential and the contribution they make to the organisation.

We are committed to the eradication of age discrimination across Trojan; indeed we employ the full spectrum from school leaver to senior citizen. Our culture respects individuals of every age, gender, creed and nationality.  

Employment – with our Clients 

We work closely with our Clients in carrying out our executive search (headhunt) activities. This is primarily to develop bespoke solutions for their recruitment needs. In conjunction with our Clients, we adopt policies and procedures that fully embrace the legal requirements, as well as their corporate goals and policies together with evolving social trends.

We ensure that the job descriptions we produce are fully compliant, as are the research techniques and Candidate approach methodology we adopt. We maintain an audit trail of all our actions and the relevant consequences. Our reporting methodology concentrates on the relevance of each Candidate to the brief and their particular circumstance and ability. Selection criteria avoid age discrimination.

Furthermore, we work with our Clients reinforcing their culture that values employees of all ages and backgrounds. 
 
Environmental

Commitment to safeguarding our environment and the community in which we work is always at the heart of our ethos. This defines our approach to what we do and how we do it, as well as the relationships we have with our staff, Clients, associates and suppliers.

Our environmental philosophy is woven into our core values and the aims and purpose of the Firm. This becomes manifest in numerous ways including:

• Quality – creating wealth for our staff, Clients and society by placing the highest calibre Candidates where they will flourish. This creates several relevant benefits ie:
  - Maximising our Clients’ sustainability & competitiveness
  - Supporting economic growth & national competitiveness
  - Enabling Candidates to reach their full potential
• Acting openly and honestly – reinforcing our caring culture and environmental-friendly actions
• Taking direct action eg waste paper & toner re-cycling, energy efficiency measures, encouraging the use of public transport by our staff, use of minimum-bleached paper, thermostatic heating controllers 

We have a long-term commitment to minimising our impact on the environment and optimising sustainability. Over time, we develop our relevant policies to ensure that they reflect the latest knowledge and evolving best practice. 

Equal Opportunities
 
Trojan embraces diversity and is committed to equality of opportunity in employment, irrespective of personal circumstance eg age, religion, disability, marital status, gender, race, colour, nationality or sexual orientation. Our employment and recruitment practices support this principle, taking action where necessary, to enable all current and potential members of the organisation to maximise their potential and, in so doing, optimise its sustainability.

Our training and development programmes respect the need of each individual (and the business), ensuring their ongoing effectiveness at every stage of their career. All levels of the organisation are fully defined, as are the requisite competencies and role profiles necessary to function at each of them. We regularly monitor our compliance with the relevant legislation and our policies, while supporting open communication with all.
