Our mission

Establishing Kerv as a beacon of sustainability

How do you create a business which is a genuine force for good? How do you make sure the way we approach this supersedes any individual? That ambition can accelerate independently of leadership?

Quote from Francis

The objective here is clear: to have a positive impact on all the Sustainable Development Goals. To create an environment where purposeful, meaningful experiences happen every day. To become a destination employer. To be an organisation full of people, proud of their work, through the impact it has.

This is how we will create a business that is a genuine force for good.

Everyone at Kerv has the freedom and power to add to the conversation. To have a voice on what you think is the right thing, with open discussions along the way, is helping us to grow in the right direction.

Rachel Verguson
Operations Team Leader

I want Kerv to have a genuine impact on wider society. I don’t just mean the direct communities where we have operations, I want to find a way to benefit a broad range of people who are in tougher situations than we are.
