Female representation in senior roles between 1 May 2019 – 1 May 2023

The following graph shows how female representation in our three most senior roles categories has changed over the last five years. As of 1 May 2023, we have exceeded expectations in meeting our global target of a 35% representation of female Equity Partners and Equivalents by 2025, specifically hitting this target in the UK and Europe regions. We are also on a positive track to meet our next target of 40% female representation by 2027. Furthermore, we have met our Legal Director female representation targets in most regions, namely APAC, Europe and the UK. Globally, we are 1% away from meeting our 50% target. Naturally, we are focused on progressing the remaining regions towards the same representation targets. Similarly, we are indeed conscious that we have further progress to make in respect of Senior Equity Partner female representation, to meet our target of 25% representation by 2025. Please see Annex 2 for a breakdown of our female representation by region.
