Gender

Inclusion

Improving the gender balance in our firm across all offices and at all levels of seniority is a top priority.

We continue to devise and implement targeted and tailored strategies that will deliver on our goal of an equality of opportunity, aspiration and experience. We are proud to be a majority women firm but we know we must work to ensure that this is reflected at all levels of our business.

To coincide with the International Women’s Day theme #AccelerateAction, our global gender parity affinity network Accelerate>>> hosted a series of events and workshops focused on allyship, role models, and career development.
