42.5% of our top managers are women

#People
​As a Group that is committed to gender equality, URW pursues a target that at least 40% of our senior leadership positions must be held by women.

Today, 42.5% of our top managers are women (up from 25% in 2016). What’s more, women currently make up around 53% of the entire company. Women also represented 57% of the new senior leaders who were promoted or hired in 2023.

Below, you can watch a video celebrating the women who are leading our business and driving our Group forward, every day.


Accelerating gender equality and the advancement of women throughout our organisation remains a key priority for us. We are steadfast in our commitment to empowering women and all under-represented groups. This is enshrined in our Be You at URW diversity and inclusion approach, which sets out how we ensure URW is a place where everyone feels safe and supported enough to be the best of themselves.
