We are thrilled to announce that DiSRUPT has won the 2024 Planet Mark Award for Data Quality & Collection, a recognition of our dedication to precision in sustainability data.
This is our second win at the Planet Mark Awards as we previously won the Best Newcomer Award in 2022.
Our latest award underscores our commitment to making a meaningful impact on the planet, validating our mission to drive positive environmental and social change across the recruitment industry.
Finalist Recognition in Absolute Carbon Reduction and Carbon Reduction per Employee
Beyond this remarkable win, DiSRUPT was also recognised as a finalist in two other categories—Absolute Carbon Reduction and Carbon Reduction per Employee—highlighting our ongoing journey to reduce our environmental footprint and foster sustainable growth.
Celebrating at the Planet Mark Awards Night
On October 24th 2024, DiSRUPT joined over 400 fellow Planet Mark Members, Partners, and supporters at the Shaw Theatre in London for a night of inspiration, recognition, and celebration.
Hosted by Planet Mark’s Andrew Griffiths and Hannah Dean-Wood, with CEO and Founder, Steve Malkin delivering the keynote speech, the event brought together sustainability champions and thought leaders dedicated to the mission of reducing carbon emissions and achieving net zero. Sponsored by Apax, Edmundson Electrical Ltd, GLP, and Prologis, this unforgettable evening highlighted the achievements of organisations that are pushing the boundaries of sustainable impact.
The night showcased extraordinary accomplishments, including DiSRUPT’s own success. It was a privilege to be among the 2024 finalists and winners, representing the innovative companies that are not just meeting but exceeding Planet Mark’s rigorous sustainability standards.
DiSRUPT was honoured to be celebrated for our commitment to sustainability, an acknowledgment that drives us to lead by example in the recruitment industry.
How DiSRUPT Won a Planet Mark Award
Our journey with Planet Mark began in May 2020, and since then, our commitment to accurately tracking and reducing emissions has only grown stronger. In 2023, DiSRUPT achieved an impressive total footprint reduction of 82.1% since our first certification year in 2019-20.
Our efforts to refine data collection processes also paid off, as we achieved a perfect score for data quality, with a 20 out of 20 compared to last year’s certification score. This level of accuracy has not only contributed to our award win but further enables us to set actionable goals for the future to further decrease our carbon impacts.
What the Planet Mark Award for Data Quality & Collection Means to DiSRUPT
