Phipps Cameron’s Environmental Policy

PCR is a leading financial recruitment specialist in placing specialist finance, strategy and M&A professionals in permanent and temporary roles. On a practical level we source all of our energy from renewable sources through the Ecotricity ‘Renewable Energy Business Tariff’. We mandate that all business travel should take the least environmental impact and minimise international travel through the use of innovative technology for communication and ensuring we can screen candidates overseas via video interviewing and other innovations.

Protection of the environment in which we live and operate is key to Phipps Cameron’s values and principles and we consider it to be sound business practice. Care for the environment is one of our key responsibilities and an important part of the way in which we do business. In this policy statement we commit our company to:
