  • It is incredibly rare to find a recruiter who instantly understands the company-wide needs and culture, Biohm's unique philosophy and approach, and the radical first-of-their-kind biotechnologies that we develop. We were very privileged to find Zoe, who has single-handedly, with her expansive network, had a transformational impact on our team and company by recruiting unique, perfectly aligned, highly sought after, and difficult to find niche talent. It is an absolute joy to have worked with Zoe on the big recruitment push we experienced this year and look forward to many more in the future.

  • Mike, our SW Head of Tech, has co-founded and helped to grow the ‘GreenTech South West’ community. 2000+ members, 36 events.
  • Alex, our Head of Data has co-founded the ‘Tech Ethics’ meetup group. 750+ members, 11 events. ‘Tech Ethics’ considers the benefits of AI and emerging technologies, but also the challenges and ethical concerns of the social implication and potential unintended consequences these technologies can have on our society.

Furthermore, our MotherBoard Charter will deliver its annual impact report, highlighting the achievements of its Charter members and increasingly use the data provided to support organisations fighting for legislative change at the government level.

FOR OUR PLANET

  • As a B2B service provider, we store an increasing amount of customer and candidate data. Given our learnings from within the Green Tech South West community, we are increasingly aware that the life cycle of storing, processing, and transmitting digital information is an area that we need to pay significant attention to.
  • Beyond planting trees. We offset our annual emissions via a carefully selected range of projects within developing countries, that have strong additional benefits beyond reducing carbon emissions. These include health benefits, saving low-income families money and reducing deforestation in a village in Africa. All of the projects are certified to the Gold Standard and include efficient household cooking stoves and clean drinking water projects.
  • 2022 Carbon Reporting. 16.2+ tonnes offset.
  • E-waste. Our tech is recycled and disposed of responsibly.
  • Where do we go next? The introduction of a data storage strategy across our CRM, website and internal documents, email management systems to significantly reduce our storage footprint.

When designing this website, keeping carbon emissions to a minimum has been a constant consideration along the way, for every page. We kept page weight to a minimum, opted for lean functional simplicity rather than fancy polluting features.
