Social Responsibility Image

Social Responsibility

We created Beacon Talent to have the opportunity to support our communities. Because of the support from our clients and candidates, each year we have donated to Women’s Habitat – a shelter providing refuge, support, and advocacy for women and children seeking safety from violence.

Diversity

Since we founded Beacon Talent, we have been committed to advancing Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in leadership roles.

On every search we undertake, we are committed to presenting a shortlist that is diverse and reflects the Canadian demographic and communities we live in. We focus on equity and equality in the search process with the goal of increasing the representation of historically underrepresented groups in senior leadership roles.

As two female founders, supporting women and helping them advance in their careers has always been a key area of focus.
