James Kelly - Senior Associate - Community and Partnerships
I am an experienced and dynamic director-level leader with a track record of delivering results to both private sector business and public funded organisations. With 20 years of experience I have the ability to assess, develop and implement strategic change, new processes for business planning, budget setting, stakeholder engagement and reporting, ensuring full transparency to partners and stakeholders.
I enjoy embracing a positive working environment in which Diversity, Equity and Inclusion are well managed, and dignity at work is upheld. Whilst immersing within a culture that creates and seizes opportunities, encourages and supports improvement, innovation, and imagination, whilst maintaining quality, efficiency and effectiveness.
Prior to my 20 years in the private sector I was fortunate to be part of the British Armed Forces which in many ways provided the foundations and skills that have transcended through my working life and my appetite to “give something back”.
Kate Macartney – Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging Specialist Consultant
I have over 7 years’ experience in this area and my passion is to partner businesses on their Diversity, Belonging and inclusion agenda’s. I support businesses as a diversity and inclusion expert having led on many projects such as building community engagement by linking businesses and the community and designing & developing DIB strategies that truly promote a DIB culture with employee wellbeing at the heart of it.
My approach is to develop my understanding of your businesses and partner with you to develop and deliver a bespoke DIB strategy.

Diversifying The Workplace
The push towards diversifying the workplace has been an on-and-off topic of discussion for many years, but more recently, talks of diversity and inclusion re-emerged due to the movement known as ‘Black Lives Matter’ plus organisations will give themselves the best chance at recovering from the effects of the pandemic if they extend their workforce, and support a proactive diversity and inclusion agenda. These factors have contributed to raising the profile of the diversity and inclusion agenda in the workplace.
Diversity and inclusion are therefore more important than ever, and organisations can do a lot to actively create more diverse working environments whilst also advancing their business in the process!
By having an inclusive and diverse workforce environment you are also allowing wider perspectives to be integrated within your business when brain storming, problem solving and developing new ideas therefore growing your bottom line.
We bring a comprehensive knowledge of D&I strategies, trends, best practices, concepts and programmes with proven experience of designing and delivering programmes which have resulted in positive change in many complex environments. We are constantly keeping ourselves up to date with what’s going on related to D&I and we will commit to keep your business one step ahead at all times.
We will tailor your individual Diversity and Inclusion agenda to support your business strategy and objectives.
Please get in touch to arrange FREE consultation over a virtual coffee to explore your diversity and inclusion agenda and how we can support you on this essential journey.
