MERITUS'S CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY (CSR) PLAN


Creating opportunity, strengthening communities, and reducing impact, through the power of people.


At the Recolution Group, we believe business should create value beyond commercial success. Our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Strategy sets out how we create opportunity, strengthen communities and reduce our environmental impact through the power of people. Built around four clear pillars — People & Inclusion, Community & Charity Impact, Environment & Sustainability, and Governance & Ethics — our plan ensures that how we recruit, operate and grow delivers measurable, lasting impact.

5 Challenges Facing UK Aerospace and Defence Organisations in 2026

By Dale Williams • October 2, 2026
The Recolution Group has achieved three internationally recognised ISO certifications across the entire business, covering Yolk , Conexus , Meritus and City Executive Search . Each certification focuses on an important part of how we operate: ISO 9001 QUALITY MANAGEMENT Supports consistent quality, clear accountability and continual improvement. ISO 27001 INFORMATION SECURITY Provides a structured approach to protecting personal and commercially sensitive information. ISO 14001 ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT Helps us understand, manage and reduce our environmental impact. Together, they provide an independently assessed framework for quality, information security and environmental responsibility. Achieving all three certifications across the Group is a significant milestone. It reflects the standards we have established across our businesses and our commitment to maintaining them as we continue to grow. WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR OUR CLIENTS? Recruitment involves a lot more than just matching people with jobs. Our clients trust us with important hiring decisions, commercially sensitive information and access to exceptional people who can have a lasting impact on their organisations. These certifications provide independent assurance of the standards and processes that support that responsibility. They reinforce our commitment to delivering a high-quality service, protecting information and operating responsibly across the Recolution Group. ONE GROUP, FOUR SPECIALIST BRANDS Yolk, Conexus, Meritus and City Executive Search each have their own specialist expertise, markets and identities. Behind them is one Recolution Group. Achieving certification across the Group means these standards are embedded across every business, not isolated to one team or function. They form part of the way we operate collectively. That matters as we continue to grow. Our clients may come to us through different brands and for very different recruitment requirements, but they can expect the same commitment to professional standards across the Group. A MILESTONE, BUT NOT THE FINISH LINE Achieving ISO 9001, ISO 27001 and ISO 14001 certification is something we're incredibly proud of. It reflects the work already in place across the Group to continually strengthen our processes, manage risk and build a firm foundation for continued growth. But certification isn't the end of the process. These standards are built around continual improvement, which means constantly reviewing how we work, manage risk and look for ways to improve what we do. As the Recolution Group grows, that's something we want to take with us.  Author: Dale Williams | CEO

Meritus Talent, as part of the Recolution Recruitment Group, has been awarded Level 2 Disability Confident Employer status through the Disability Confident initiative. This accreditation sits firmly under the first pillar of our CSR strategy: People & Inclusion – Creating Opportunity for All . Operating within aerospace, defence and advanced engineering, we understand the value of highly skilled individuals who think differently, solve complex problems, and drive innovation. Inclusive recruitment is not simply a moral imperative, it is a strategic one. By removing barriers and ensuring fair access to opportunity, we strengthen both businesses and careers. The accreditation also marks the launch of our Open Doors Pledge , a clear commitment to championing inclusive hiring practices across our own operations and within the organisations we support. We are not simply opening doors. We are holding them open. We will continue to evolve our processes, challenge outdated thinking, and support our clients in building accessible, future ready workforces.
