Hello
Constructing Rainbows is a global, impact-driven EDI consultancy dedicated to building truly inclusive organisations and meritocratic workplaces. Our mission is to contribute to a better world by embedding equity, diversity and inclusion where it matters most—at work.
​
We believe an inclusive world begins in the workplace. Through expert guidance and positive disruption, we challenge and educate leadership teams, helping to reshape organisations to become more inclusive. Our commitment is to deliver measurable change that adds real value to both businesses and society. These principles aren’t just statements - they’re embedded in everything we do, every day.
Our Journey
Constructing Rainbows was established in 2017 by Sharon, who saw the need for a more strategic approach to equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) within the built environment. With over 20 years of experience as a Chartered Quantity Surveyor across the construction and facilities management sectors in both the UK and Australia, Sharon recognised the significant benefits that a dedicated focus on EDI could bring to the industry.
​
In the next phase of Constructing Rainbows, Emma joined the team, bringing over 20 years of expertise in strategic and operational facilities management, along with executive-level experience in implementing EDI strategies.
​
Together, our combined strengths in strategy, commercial insight, and operational expertise, paired with a deep understanding of EDI, allow us to create inclusive cultures that integrate seamlessly into the everyday business practices of organisations in the built environment.
​
With positive impact at the heart of our work, we also volunteer our time to support several EDI networks.
​
We look forward to partnering with you.
