Our People

Responsible Business is the only business in the Balkans

People shape every strong business. They build relationships, solve problems, and help customers grow. At Westcon-Comstor, our people do all of that every day. They power Partner Success across markets, teams, and technologies.

Supporting our people helps us deliver better outcomes for partners and vendors. It also helps us build a more Responsible Business across South-Eastern Europe and beyond.

Why our people matter

Our people are our most important asset. Their knowledge, care, and commitment help us turn strategy into action. They help partners solve real problems, deliver better customer experiences, and respond to change with confidence.

A strong people strategy also supports business resilience. When employees feel included and supported, they’re more likely to stay, develop new skills, and contribute fresh ideas. That matters in every market, especially in regions where competition for talent is high.

Across the Balkans, many businesses are working to attract and retain skilled people in technical and leadership roles. That makes culture, development, and wellbeing more important than ever. We want to be a place where people want to join and love to stay.

Our focus areas

We focus on three clear priorities that help our people thrive and help our business grow.

Embracing diversity, equity, and inclusion

We want every employee to feel valued and to have a genuine sense of belonging. Diversity, equity, and inclusion are not side initiatives. They’re part of how we build teams, make decisions, and support performance.

In a region as diverse as the Balkans, this matters. Teams often work across languages, cultures, and national markets. An inclusive culture helps people work better together.

Supporting health and wellbeing

People do their best work when they feel well. That includes physical health, mental wellbeing, and work-life balance. We support our employees with programmes designed to help them stay healthy, feel supported, and manage the demands of work and life.

This matters across all markets, including the Balkans, where many teams work in hybrid environments and across multiple time zones. Flexible support can make a real difference. It can reduce stress, improve engagement, and help people build sustainable careers.

Developing people to achieve their best

Learning and development help people grow with confidence. They also help businesses stay competitive. In fast-moving sectors like technology, skills can’t stand still.

We invest in learning opportunities that help our people build capability, increase job satisfaction, and contribute to a culture of innovation.

How we support our people

Employee Resource Groups

We run Employee Resource Groups to create safe spaces for discussion and connection. These groups help employees share experiences, raise important topics, and support one another in meaningful ways.

Focus on gender representation

We work to address gender disparities through hiring and development, with a focus on women in leadership and technical roles. This is important in technology, where representation gaps still exist in many markets.

Family-friendly culture

We support a family-friendly working environment and encourage work-life balance. This helps people manage professional goals alongside personal responsibilities. It helps us build a culture based on trust, respect, and long-term commitment.

Wellbeing programmes

We offer comprehensive wellbeing programmes, including a health and wellbeing app and mental health support. These tools give employees practical ways to manage stress, build healthy habits, and seek help when needed.

Inclusion training

Our people complete regular training in unconscious bias, diversity, equity, and inclusion. This helps employees and leaders make better decisions, work more effectively together, and build a more respectful culture.

ONE Westcon and inclusive culture

We run the Open Network for Employees, ONE Westcon, to help embed diversity, equity, and inclusion into our culture. The programme raises awareness and encourages participation through events, activities, education, and recognition linked to awareness days and cultural celebrations.
