Xander is committed to change.
To achieve long-lasting and meaningful change, we're taking action. We've built several partnerships with businesses and social enterprises that are taking actionable steps towards increasing Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.
Impact, recognised.
Purpose in action.
Purpose continues to drive how we think and act as a business at Xander. To cement this commitment, we have achieved B Corporation certification, which means we will be legally required to annually report the progress of our social and environmental goals.

Our partners
To achieve the change that we want society to reflect, our mission is rooted in the communities that we serve. We’ve partnered with several charities and social enterprise projects, which our Xander Associates play a major role in supporting these initiatives, so that we can continue to eradicate all forms of discrimination.
“Lots of companies talk about making a difference, but few build it so deliberately into the core of their organisation. Xander are focused on changing the employment landscape for individuals with disabilities, and their dedicated support for these important social enterprises will allow us to drive change across society. Thank you for standing up and making this happen.”
