Back in 2006 there was no TOP EMPLOYERS FOR WOMEN list - so we started one!
We wanted to provide an insightful source of reference for female candidates - whether interns, graduates, experienced professionals, women returners or senior exectives. Back then many companies didn't have sophisticated employer brands or well-conceived employee value propositions. A decade later it's a very different story.
The Times TOP 50 Employers for Women list features top employers in the UK who actively work to recruit, retain, develop and progress female talent in exciting and innovative ways. And since 2006, the TOP 50 initiative has certainly grown from strength to strength. Today, 141 different organisations have been honoured for their focus on supporting women in the workplace via the TOP 50 list. From the start, we always ran the list alphabetically rather than an ordered list because different organisations appeal to women for varied reasons. How could we say one company is best for all women?
