Governance

We lead with integrity, not bureaucracy. Our governance is bold, transparent and designed to earn trust — every decision, every time.

Robust governance is the bedrock of our operations. We're committed to clear, ethical practices and making decisions openly. It’s how we protect everyone involved, stay accountable and build a stronger, more reliable future together.

In 2026, we published our first-ever DM ESG Annual Report, which provides updates for our ESG goals and strengthens our accountability framework.

Governance areas of focus

Structure:

We are conscious of our Board and Senior Leadership Team composition, making sure that we:

  • Have diversity of thought at Board and Performance level
  • Define and develop the Remuneration Committee’s purpose

Transparency:

Our focus is on the following policy updates:

  • Put in place a Sustainability Code of Ethics & Corporate Responsibility Policy and a Grievance, Complaints & Whistleblowing policy for our Clients and members of the public, outlining acceptable behaviours and practices
  • Develop an ESG Risk Management Framework alongside the existing risk framework
  • Continue to invest in sustainability reporting and verification
  • Introduce a new policy platform with enhanced user experience to make it more accessible to staff

Ethical Supply Chain:

We want to ensure we have the policies and infrastructure in place ensure an ethical supply chain by:

  • Having a supplier code of conduct and procurement policies
  • Investing in a transparency and traceability programme to map of our supply chain
  • Engaging with our suppliers to improve their practices
