Gender Equality at BAT Australia
We are also continuing to work hard to improve gender diversity across the Group. Female representation in senior management has more than doubled since 2012, from 11% to 25% in 2020, and women represent 38% of all management roles globally.
Women represent 40% of our Main Board and 15% of our Management Board and comprise 27% of our senior leadership teams in 2020. We support women’s development into senior roles through a variety of initiatives, including our Women in the Leadership programme and participation in the 30% Club mentoring programme. We have female executives on all our senior functional and geographical leadership teams, and nearly 60% of our 2020 graduate intake were women, supporting the development of a sustainable pipeline of women for senior management roles.
