Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

Our ambition is to be an inclusive organisation that reflects our society where all feel welcome, able to be themselves and belong.

As part of this we are committed to building a truly diverse team and incorporate diversity into everything we do - enabling our people and places to thrive in a collaborative and inclusive culture, where uniqueness is valued and contributes to our shared success. In this way, we’ll not only build a stronger business, but also play our part in helping to bring about a more equal and inclusive society.

To further fuel this ambition, we have a DEI action plan and targets alongside the following four employee-led networks, each with distinct goals and purposes:

Race, Ethnicity and Culture network: To foster a workplace where every individual, regardless of race, ethnicity, or cultural background, feels valued, included, & empowered to contribute their unique perspectives for the collective success of TCE.

Out on the Estate network: To grow a deeper understanding of LGBTIQ+ issues at The Crown Estate, raising awareness and enabling conversations across the business as well as providing psychologically safe spaces for our LGBTIQ+ and Ally members.

Gender network: We are committed to empowering women for success through career development and mentorship. Our mission is to create a safe and inclusive space for women, supported by member-led events and speed networking opportunities.

Accessibility network: To challenge the business to improve the experience of disabled and neurodiverse colleagues and creating a community of motivated individuals to champion positive change.

We’re a disability confident Level 2 employer, which demonstrates our commitment to fostering inclusivity. As part of this commitment, we operate the offer of interview scheme for disabled applicants who meet the minimum criteria for vacancies.

We collaborate with expert partners like AccessAble, Purple, and the Business Disability Forum to enhance accessibility across our locations and digital platforms. We also hold several memberships to support colleagues on DEI topics and share best practices. The memberships are listed below:
