Investor in People

In April 2008 Citybond were accredited as an Investors in People organisation. The Investors in People Standard is a business improvement tool designed to advance an organisation’s performance through its people.

We are fully committed to what Investors in People can do for our business and use the framework as a tool to check the strength of our internal practices and to verify that they meet externally assessed standards.

What the Assessor said:

“Citybond Holdings Plc should be commended on its genuine commitment to continuously developing the way in which it manages and develops its people”.

“Staff are very clear about the overall direction of the company and the role they have in contributing to it and fully share the company’s future aspirations”.

“Tied in with the open and supportive culture, there is a clear emphasis within Citybond Holdings Plc on recognising and rewarding contribution”.

What our people say:

“The Managers make every effort to ensure we are all included in what’s going on and that we are accessing the training and development we need to do our jobs better”.

“When my Manager gives me feedback it’s never done in a critical way, it’s always provided in a way that positively develops me”.

“It’s about performing well, making sure we get good feedback from our clients and working together to achieve our company goals”.
