For over 75 years, The Soil Association has been at the forefront of transforming the way we eat, farm, and care for our natural world. The organisation is deeply committed to creating real solutions that address interconnected global issues, with food, farming, and forestry playing a pivotal role.
Employee engagement is a cornerstone of The Soil Association's culture. Initiatives like weekly yoga classes and walk-and-talk lunchtime meet-ups promote wellbeing and social engagement. The organisation fosters a sense of community through sports and social groups such as badminton, cricket, and squash, as well as a shared café-style kitchen that encourages interaction during breaks.
The Soil Association prioritises mental health and wellbeing with dedicated mental health first aiders and a range of wellbeing resources, including "Lunch and Learn" sessions on topics like financial and digital wellbeing. These resources are easily accessible through its Wellbeing folder on SharePoint.
The organisation is committed to aligning learning and development with core skills and personal growth. Diverse learning opportunities such as mentoring, job shadowing, and self-study are actively promoted. Initiatives like the Digital Skills Apprenticeship and Train the Trainer Courses encourage continuous learning.
The Soil Association integrates its values into strategic plans and team objectives, with senior management leading by example. Regular communication, including team meetings and newsletters like Soil e-news, reinforces the organisation's values and strategic agenda. Loyalty awards celebrate long-serving staff, underscoring the value placed on employee dedication. Through these initiatives, the Soil Association advances its mission and cultivates a thriving, engaged workforce.
