About Criminal Records
We are committed to equal opportunities and anti-discrimination.
BrandPipe understands the value of second-chances and if we want to encourage societal progress we must be a participant. Our CEO has worked with current and former prisoners at HMP Wolds and knows first-hand the value of opportunity. Our clients operate in highly regulated sectors where specific, additional rules apply to people that work within them.
If you have been convicted of a financial fraud, cyber crime or medical malpractice, then you can't work with our current clients as our contracts with them preclude it. As every team member is an active participant with all our clients that leaves us with fewer potential opportunities to discuss.
However, that doesn't mean there's no future for you at BrandPipe, but it has to start with your full disclosure so we can see if there's a way forward.
