The Ripple Effect of Success
At Wavemaker we’re proud to call ourselves people people, because for us, what we do is all about who we’re doing it for, and with – and making sure we have a positive impact on people’s lives.
We treat our staff fairly. We support local economies as much as we can. We engage in meaningful community initiatives.
Making Positive Waves
This not only fulfils our ethical obligations, but also creates a positive workplace culture, boosts local enterprise and cohesion, enhances our brand reputation, and lays solid foundations for sustainable success.
Diversity & Inclusion
We actively promote equal opportunities and an inclusive culture, so our workforce is gender-balanced and socially diverse.
Employee Engagement
We do all we can to empower our staff and treat them well, so they’re motivated and enthusiastic about providing an exceptional guest experience.
Giving Back to the Community
We support local good causes and social or environmental initiatives. In 2023 we proudly donated €110,200 to charities.
Supporting the Local Economy
Over 90% of our suppliers are local, and we actively promote regional gastronomy and culture through our hotels and restaurants.
Event Sponsorship
We sponsor an array of local events and activities around our sites, to embed ourselves more deeply in the community.
By prioritizing fair labour practices, supporting local economies, and engaging in meaningful community initiatives, we not only align with ethical standards but also cultivate a positive workplace culture, enhance our brand reputation, and contribute to sustainable success.
Strengthening the Social Fabric
Wherever we operate, we want to benefit the local communities through our ethical business practices and sustainability efforts.
To ensure our positive impact reaches beyond the confines of our workplaces, we employ local people, source almost exclusively from local suppliers, and are active contributors to local causes and initiatives.
This helps those regional economies to develop, fuelling growth and strengthening local resilience.
Together We Thrive
We foster a culture of belonging at Wavemaker. In the hospitality sector it’s especially important for everyone to feel included and respected, whether you’re a guest or a worker.
For us, embracing diversity means more than just checking boxes – it also means a richer guest experience and stronger staff engagement. By celebrating difference in all its aspects, we cultivate a dynamic, inclusive workplace that reflects our commitment to excellence and innovation in hospitality.
