    1. Our Commitment

      We are committed to an inclusive work environment that respects and values diverse perspectives, expertise, experiences, cultures and differences across our firm. As an equal opportunity employer, we support a culture that takes action to remove barriers, focuses on inclusion and ensures open and fair processes for the advancement of our associates. Our leadership welcomes being held to the highest standard as an example we must all aspire to be while recognizing we all have opportunity for growth. All associates who deliver on our primary objectives and uphold our firm’s values will have a successful career at Meridian.

    2. Our Approach

      We recruit and hire candidates across a broad array of backgrounds based upon their ability, expertise, experience and commitment to be outstanding board-level advisors. Our managers are effective advocates and focused coaches for our associates nurturing a sense of belonging and balance. We educate professional interest groups about our consulting discipline and introduce executive compensation and corporate governance consulting as a challenging and rewarding profession to broader audiences as part of our efforts toward building a true representation of the global world we live in.

      We respect and honor differences with our developed collaborative culture of communication.

      Meridian believes in continuous improvement. We are not afraid to ask tough questions. We look forward to the hard work that conscious inclusion and elevating our unique perspectives brings to our client relationships.

Our talent continues to be our strength and what sets Meridian apart from other executive compensation consulting firms.
