Flood risk specialist JBA Risk Management has joined an international community of around 9,000 firms by achieving B Corporation certification. The accreditation demands firms pursue purpose as well as profit and appraises operations across five areas - governance, workers, community, environment and customers.

Simon Waller (pictured), executive chair at JBA Risk Management, said: “Being a B Corp means we’re more than just a business; we are a force for change.

“I believe that B Corp values are in JBA’s DNA. We’ve always endeavoured to make a positive impact on our workers, the community, the environment and our customers.”
