Our colleagues are a key pillar to our business, and we understand the need to continuously move our culture forward in an ever-evolving world.

Our colleague networks and working parties align to the above pillars and represent the views and needs of the represented group to the business. The networks work to raise awareness, celebrate difference, and promote Allyship across the business.

It is widely known that Maritime has traditionally been a male dominated industry. The Port of Felixstowe actively strives to be recognised as an inclusive employer of women. We know our female representation is less balanced than we would like, however, we have a strong plan for attracting, developing and retaining females in a variety of roles.
