Supporting employee development

We believe our hardworking teams are our greatest asset. We want them all to have the skills, commitment, and enthusiasm to grow our business and add value for our shareholders. We are committed to supporting career development and continued education at every stage of our employees’ careers.

We want Innospec to be an attractive career choice for both new recruits and long-term employees. We are proud of our high levels of employee retention. Over 55% of employees have been with us for over five years and 33% have worked with us for over ten years. Our people and their values underpin our business and are crucial to driving Innospec forward.

Global Sharesave Program

Our global Sharesave Program, launched in 2022, is available to every employee across all businesses and countries. All those who participate save a set amount of money over a fixed period. At the end of that period, participants can choose to either buy Innospec stock at a discounted price or receive the money saved. This has proved to be an excellent way for employees to participate in the success of our business.

Diversity & Inclusion

Our business benefits from a diverse range of skills and creativity thanks to the geographical and cultural spread of our operations. We are committed to treating everybody with dignity and respect, across our global business and beyond.
