FOSTERING A RESPECTFUL AND INCLUSIVE WORK ENVIRONMENT

Richard McNeilly.

When you work at Dains, you will quickly see that we care about our employees in the same way we care about our clients. You become part of a team of people who collaborate and innovate together during the working day, but who also enjoy spending time together outside of that to relax and have fun.

We believe our employees are our greatest asset, and we look to provide the best working environment, along with hybrid and smart working options and generous benefits. We listen, learn and evolve as we strive to make Dains a great place to work. Everyone is treated with the same level of respect no matter what job title they have. We are all members of a team of people who are working together towards the same objective. So, if you need to ask a question or have a suggestion, you are encouraged to share it and get involved. 

We empower you to deliver the highest quality service to clients, which enables you to succeed in your career aspirations. Having a positive company culture is especially important to us.

What I love about the people at Dains is that they care, not only for their clients, but for the community and each other. As a business we understand that our employees are our biggest asset, and we strive to provide the best working environment from flexible working hours to a fantastic benefits scheme. We listen to our people and evolve to make Dains a great place to work.

Our Commitment to Inclusion

At Dains Group, we believe that diversity is a vital part of our identity and a foundation of our success.  We strive to create a culture of inclusivity, where all employees are supported in their professional growth and development.    Our efforts towards diversity and inclusion are ongoing, and we continuously work to improve our practices and policies to ensure a welcoming and supportive workplace for all individuals.

We are proud to share our diversity statistics, which reflect our ongoing commitment to fostering an inclusive environment where everyone feels valued and empowered.

Diversity drives innovation and reflects the communities we serve.  Our commitment to diversity is about cultivating a culture of respect, understanding and collaboration.

We remain dedicated to increasing our diversity efforts and are working on initiatives to recruit from underrepresented groups, whilst we continue to provide training on unconscious bias.

We invite you to join us on this journey where we create a more inclusive future for everyone.

Wellness

The wellbeing of our employees and their ability to balance work and home life is paramount to us. Therefore, we work hard to protect their mental health and wellbeing. Our company has policies and procedures in place, and we have a free Employee Assistance Programme that gives practical and emotional support to employees. 

We’re committed to staff health and wellness, so we have several Mental Health First Aiders at the firm and recently added mental wellbeing content to our established Wellbeing Centre on our intranet.

Dains in the Community

Partners and staff at Dains care deeply about giving back to the community where we live and work. Our company prides itself on its people-focused values and is always mindful of the impact its activities might have on others. As a firm, we want whatever we are doing to have only positive effects on our people, our clients and suppliers, our environment, and our community.

As a result, we formed “Dains in the Community” in 2006, a team responsible for bringing our corporate responsibility agenda to life and promoting its importance across all parts of the company.

Recognition

The Reward & Recognition Scheme was introduced to reward employees for going beyond their normal duties. Each month, employees can nominate a colleague for Superstar of the Month, then our Practice Management Committee evaluates the submissions and selects a worthy winner.

Throughout the year, we recognise and show our appreciation to additional colleagues who contribute to the success of the firm and who also live our values through working and succeeding together and valued relationships.
