At Hunter, we’re proud to have joined the global B Corp movement, where organisations are committed to using business as a force for good. Becoming a Certified B Corporation is a milestone that aligns perfectly with our mission:
Our foundation is built upon being an exceptional business operating within the recruitment market, serving all stakeholders with the highest integrity and excellence. We are committed to conducting business with a clear purpose, ensuring that our actions are mindful of environmental sustainability and positive social impact.
B Corp certification isn’t just about earning a badge – it’s a commitment to meeting the highest social and environmental standards in everything we do, everyday. At Hunter, we’ve always prided ourselves on operating with integrity and excellence. Now, our certification publicises this approach, ensuring that we’re accountable to all stakeholders and our wider community, constantly striving to improve and deliver on our plans and intentions whilst driving change within our supply chain.
The decision to pursue B Corp certification started in 2023, following years of refining our business practices. With help from the consultancy Business on Purpose, we tackled the rigorous B Impact Assessment (BIA). From governance to environmental sustainability, the process pushed us to think deeply about how we run our business.
We made some tough changes, particularly in tracking environmental impact, but we learned a lot. Involving our team was key – we held a B Corp Day and got everyone to help develop our mission. The result? A more resilient, responsible company that’s focused on making a positive difference. We are proud to have received an overall B Impact Score of 93.5. The qualifying score for B Corp certification is 80, and the median score for ordinary businesses is 50.9.
As a B Corporation, we are committed to conducting business with a clear purpose, ensuring that our actions are mindful of environmental sustainability and positive social impact. We continue to hold ourselves and our partners to high standards, ensuring that every decision we make benefits people, communities, and the planet. This commitment adds even more value to our recruitment services, aligning us with clients who share our values.
"Six months of getting accredited for B Corp has really just been the icing on the cake in 20 years of hard work, trying to be a great business to work for, and a great business to work with."
— Russell Smith, Founder & Managing Director
