Our commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion

Diversity and inclusivity are what make hospitality such a vibrant and exciting industry to work in, and at Zonal, we’re on a mission to embrace that, with our Valuing Diversity initiative. As part of our commitment to ED&I, we’re increasing representation across all our teams, because we know that when we bring together different voices, ideas and perspectives, and celebrate our uniqueness, everyone succeeds.

Everyone has a seat at our family's table

We’re a family business, and not just in name. Our family is inclusive; we work together and look out for each other, recognising and challenging everyday biases, working to remove obstacles to inclusion and ensuring all our people can thrive and be themselves.
