How to empower teams through employee-led networks

We connect with Purpose Hero, Helen Robinson, the Diversity, Inclusion and Community Engagement Manager at Auto Trader, a British automotive classified advertising business that specialises in new and second-hand automotive sales.

With roughly 1,000 employees, Auto Trader is headquartered in Manchester with smaller offices in London, Dublin, and remote workers dotted around the UK.

Within this episode, we hear from Helen about how they’ve implemented a bottom-up strategy through employee-led networks that give all Auto Trader employees the opportunity to have a voice when it comes to doing good. As well as how they establish strong means of communication between guilds and offer volunteering and fundraising opportunities that speak to everyone’s unique tastes at the company.
