Equality & diversity
Celebrating difference
Our commitment & pledge
At Designer Group we are focused on creating a culture driven by diversity. We know the benefits it brings to the business and our industry as a whole.
We are fostering a culture of respect, inclusion and fairness. We have pledged to further promote diversity throughout our workplace, and our industry, by becoming a signatory to the recently launched Construction Industry Federation (CIF)’s Diversity and Inclusion Charter.
Over the coming year, we’ll be working towards achieving our ‘Investors in Diversity Bronze Accreditation’, positively influencing the beliefs, attitudes and behaviour surrounding equality in construction.
Prejudice has no place at Designer Group.
Meet some of our team
I joined Designer Group in February 2018 and immediately felt like I was part of a family. I love my job and as my friends keep saying, I really fell on my feet when I started here. This is my first role in the construction industry and while everyone works extremely hard, we also have lots of fun. The team are very inclusive and are always ready to celebrate, which is great for my social life too.

PA to the CEO
At Designer Group, a diverse and inclusive work environment is essential for fostering a dynamic atmosphere. Being part of a team that includes various nationalities, backgrounds, and work experiences has enriched my professional journey. These diverse teams bring a wealth of ideas based on their unique backgrounds, developing new and innovative solutions to problems. This inclusive approach has enhanced our project delivery and broadened my horizons. I am proud to be part of a company that values diversity and continually strives to create an equitable and inclusive workplace for everyone.
Hein Heunis
Commercial Manager
Coming from an architectural background with a history in freelance graphic design, I was excited to start an in-house graphic design career with Designer Group. I felt an instant warm welcome the moment I stepped foot in the door and haven’t looked back since. I am excited to create a positive impact with and for Designer Group.
