Diversity + Inclusion
At H+K London, we’re hard at work creating a louder culture of equality. In 2018, H+K London came together in force to launch EquAll, our local expression of the global H+K Diversity and Inclusion program You Belong.
Across three focus areas, creativity, culture and people, EquAll aims to ensure that all voices – loud, quiet, younger, older, of any ethnic origin, background, geography, sexuality or religion – are not just heard, but listened to and harnessed to create a culture that makes our work and workplace the best it can be.
EquAll started as a series of agency-wide in person conversations which crystalised into the three focus areas, chosen by the agency and led by small self-selected teams to accelerate the integration of diverse and inclusive mindsets and behaviours into our business.
- With creativity, we explore how to ensure the ideas we bring to clients are inclusive, representative and diverse from the start.
- On culture, we are workshopping how people at all levels in the company feel we’re doing on things like flexibility, wellbeing, meeting culture, leadership, language and collaboration.
- On people, we’re actively improving the way we recruit and train to make sure diverse talent belongs and thrives here.
By working with our expert behavioural science team, SMARTER, we can work around barriers in existing culture that shape common experience with culture change, which anyone who’s human knows can be hard to do!
We are currently implementing new initiatives on meeting culture, parenting and recruitment.
For more information on EquAll, please contact our Managing Director of Healthcare + Wellbeing and EquAll co-founder, Jessica Walsh.

Hear from our people
Simon Rendell
Senior Account Director, Energy + Industrials
London
The most valuable thing about starting my career at H+K has been the variety. In the past five years I have learnt how to do everything from arranging a photoshoot, to pitching to media. By working across sector teams I have seen first-hand the array of challenges clients face, allowing me to become a multi-skilled consultant. Responsibility, once earned, is provided in spades. My career has continued to progress within H+K and to this day I am being provided new avenues of opportunity.
Emma Wright
Associate Director, Sports
London
I joined H+K from a smaller agency and was a bit worried about losing that culture, but the reality is so different. The people here are some of the smartest and most driven I have ever worked with and mean you are constantly learning and developing. H+K is somewhere you really can write your own story. In my five years I’ve helped create and launch our sustainability offer Better Impact and been part of our drive into entertainment and gaming, on top of working on some of my dream clients.
