Certification
The Bridge Group has been awarded the following certifications:
Living Wage Employer
The Bridge Group is an accredited Living Wage Employer, meaning that every member of our staff earns a real Living Wage.
Gaining this accreditation reinforces the Bridge Group’s commitment to creating a positive workplace that values and supports our employees. But it also demonstrates alignment with our mission to make a real and lasting impact on socio-economic diversity and social equality, since a Living Wage enables people to focus on professional growth without the burden of financial stress; a fairer labour market for all.
Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus
The Bridge Group has been reawarded Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus certification. The government-backed scheme, led by the National Cyber Security Centre in association with the IASME consortium, aims to protect organisations against cyber attacks. The process includes both an online self-assessment and an independent audit of all Bridge Group systems and processes by a qualified assessor.
The audit is conducted annually to maintain compliance, and our certification is valid until December 2025.
FSQS: Registered Supplier
The Bridge Group has met all of the requirements to become fully registered within the Financial Supplier Qualification System (FSQS), demonstrating our commitment and credentials to the industry.
FSQS is an accreditation tool that provides a standard for collecting and managing supplier compliance assurance information across the financial sector. The system is supported by leading financial organisations within the sector including Lloyds Banking Group, TSB, Santander and The Bank of England. It requires that suppliers are reviewed against FSQS requirements in key areas including: data collection and GDPR, ESG, cyber security, resilience, health and safety, fraud, business continuity financial insurance, human resources and many other types of information.
The Bridge Group’s FSQS certification is valid until January 2026.
