Verde’s diversity statement

At Verde, we are committed to promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion, especially in the outdoors. We recognize that the outdoor industry has not always been accessible or welcoming to all. We strive to change that through our work with our clients and media partners who have broad reach, as well as through our internal work as an agency.

We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to experience the mental and physical benefits of nature, regardless of their race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, age, ability, or socio-economic status.

We are dedicated to amplifying diverse voices and stories in the outdoor industry, and to working with organizations and individuals who share this commitment. We strive to create a team that reflects the diversity of the communities we serve, and to foster an inclusive and respectful work environment.

We are committed to continuous learning and growth, and to using our platform and influence to advocate for equitable access to the outdoors for all.

Our dedication to ongoing development extends to utilizing our influence and resources to promote equal opportunities for all individuals to experience the outdoors, not only within our own organization but also among our clients and partners. We aim to facilitate their growth and progress towards this objective and their own inclusion goals.

Verde is an equal opportunity employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy), sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, marital status, or status as a U.S. Veteran.
