At Zeno, “fearless” is not just a mantra for how we do business. It’s also about the culture we strive to cultivate, and our constant pursuit of a dynamic, inclusive workplace.  Zeno is for everyone.

Our definition of diversity and inclusion is powerful in its breadth. We are shaping an environment that welcomes every race, ethnicity, gender expression, sexual orientation, socioeconomic class, religion, nationality, citizenship, age, ability and political affiliation. Zeno is committed to fostering a global workforce where all employees feel valued, included and empowered.

Promoting diversity and inclusion is first and foremost a moral and ethical imperative that speaks to our core values. We also know that a diverse workforce drives greater innovation.

In whatever aspect of life you consider yourself diverse, you are welcome at Zeno.
