CEO's statement
We're committed to taking meaningful action to build a sustainable future for everyone.
Whether it is engineers building green infrastructure, developers aiding digital transformation or the scientists helping to develop life-changing drugs, specialist STEM talent plays a vital role in tackling the most complex issues facing our world. We know this first-hand. As a global STEM-specialist talent partner, we connect sought-after specialists with dynamic organisations across the world.
As the world continues to recover from the Covid-19 pandemic, the demand for specialist STEM skills continues to rapidly increase.
Through our purpose of bringing skilled people together to build the future, we're pairing change-making STEM talent with game-changing organisations and helping them deliver innovations to make the world better.
This report outlines the significant progress we're making towards the ambitious targets we set in 2020. Not only that, but it provides a clear picture of how SThree is contributing to the UN Sustainable Development Goals. We're committed to taking meaningful action to build a sustainable future for everyone.
