Boardroom diversity | How many women lead the UK's biggest firms? We're about to find out

The countdown has commenced for the UK’s largest firms to reveal how many women occupy senior leadership roles at their business.

The FTSE Women Leaders Review Leadership Gender Data Submission Portal has opened for all FTSE 350 companies and, for the first time, 50 of the UK’s largest private companies have been invited to submit their Leadership Gender Data.

Firms including Virgin Atlantic, Deloitte, John Lewis Partnership, Co-op, Matalan and PwC have until November 30th 2022 to submit their results.

Supported by the Government, the FTSE Women Leaders Review is the UK’s independent business-led, framework dedicated to improving the representation of women on boards and leadership teams in FTSE 350 companies which announced in February this year that it would be extending the scope of its remit to include 50 of the UK’s largest private companies.
