Diversity, equity and inclusion

Diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) is at the core of everything we do at Post Consumer Brands. This commitment is deeply rooted in our values and how we work. We know that when we create an environment in which everyone feels welcome and has an opportunity to contribute, we all grow together.

At Post Consumer Brands, we believe …

Each are key to creating a culture of belonging that enables every one of our team members to bring their full selves to work and contribute their unique perspectives and ideas.

Our commitment requires us to identify and remove disadvantages and barriers that exist.

In order to benefit from our differences, we need to be intentional in our efforts to recognize and value those differences.

Our goal has been and remains hiring the most qualified candidate, AND in order to do that, we must take the necessary steps to ensure that our job requirements are valid, opportunities are accessible to those who meet our criteria and our evaluation processes are fair.

Valuing difference is not limited to specific groups and is inclusive of ALL differences that matter.

We intend to create positive change for the people and our communities who are most in need.
