Pay gap reporting
We report not only our gender pay gap,
but also our ethnicity pay gap, and actively
campaign for other large companies to follow suit.
Our fifth combined Gender and Ethnicity Pay Gap Report
(published in November 2024, reporting the pay gap as
at 5 April 2024) details our commitment to creating a diverse
and inclusive work community that enhances our culture.
This year, we continue to make positive steps in reducing both our median and mean pay gaps with our median reducing by 0.7% and our mean by 0.2%. We’ve done this by focusing on three key areas: hiring, retaining and developing employees.
Overall, we have increased our women hires, with 52% of all new starters being women within the last 12 months – a 6% increase year-on-year. We are pleased to have achieved our goal of reaching an equal gender split across our recruitment campaigns. We do however recognise that there is still work to do here, specifically maintaining that equal representation when hiring into senior roles.
We are performing well in retaining women in the upper quartiles, with only 15% of leavers coming from this group, compared to 53% for men. This year, we have further strengthened our maternity and family leave policies to provide even greater support for women and families throughout their careers.
We also introduced our company funded Menopause Plan which provides personalised support for employees struggling to manage their symptoms. We believe these enhancements will further boost our retention of women in the future.
