Human Centric

Anumana was created to put people before profits, and we take pride in embedding that ethos in everything we do.

We want to prove that it is possible to create a successful commercial business without compromising on people and planet ethics. We consider our impact in every interaction, from the laptops we source to the suppliers we work with.

This is why we’re on the road to becoming BCorp certified, undergoing our verification having spent the last 2 years putting in the policies, procedures and best practices to instil our human centric approach.

Our Impact

Environmental

We are committed to ensuring that our impact on the environment is as positive as possible, and we recognise that there’s work to do and that some areas need more focus.

We have created a BCORP continuous improvement plan and meet quarterly to make sure we are always improving, tracking our progress, and always striving to be better.

Social

As part of our social impact strategy we want to increase awareness around social mobility challenges round the technology industry and encourage others to promote and take positive action.

We are fiercely committed to breaking down the barriers to entry into the technology industry for those from less privileged backgrounds. We want to re-balance the scales.

We have pledged and are encouraging all staff to spend up to 20% of their working week on a combination of pro bono, volunteering, personal development and research & development.

Governance

Supporting social mobility is a our core principle, we consider it to be one of the critical success factors of our business.

We continue to increase awareness by engaging with podcasts, contributing to articles, appearing on technology industry panels, and forging partnerships with educational faculties in and around the North West.
