Working at UKAS

Working at UKAS means being part of a team. You can find out more about the culture we strive for at the UK's sole National Accreditation Body in this video.

Living the UKAS values requires an attitude and flexibility that matches the agility of the company. We recognise that there are always new things to learn and have embarked on an Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) initiative that will help us to foster a 'culture of belonging', which you can find out more about in this article.

Our mission at UKAS is to ‘build a world of trust and confidence’ and we believe this extends to our people, as well as the customers we serve.

Our commitment is to foster a culture of belonging; a place where our people feel seen, heard, valued, and accepted. We are determined to achieve a stronger sense of belonging aligned to our values of Professionalism, Respect, Integrity, Dedication and Excellence (PRIDE).

Welcomed

Our aim is to ensure people feel welcomed and integrated into the organisation from the outset.

Understood

Our goal is to create a space for our people to feel understood, a place where we can learn about

one another and share experiences that create a dialogue of understanding and acceptance.

Included

It’s important that individuals feel respected and accepted without reservation. Through our

Purpose, Mission, Vision and Values , we strive to create an environment where there is collective

appreciation of how our people contribute to the success of the organisation.

Supported

We value the diversity everyone brings to the organisation and want our people to feel nurtured and

developed. We empower managers to provide the support needed to develop their team members,

ensuring everyone has access to all resources available to succeed in their role.

Connected

It is our priority to break down silos and encourage cross-functional interaction to enhance personal

and professional relationships, so everyone’s voice is heard, and people feel connected at all levels.
