Women in Maritime

Driving gender balance in the maritime industry

Our Women in Maritime network began as a result of the desire to stay connected – not just with our colleagues, but our clients and peers navigating this space. Over time we found we had together created a space to collaboratively discuss, learn and challenge the status quo.

Our continued aim is to encourage more women into the industry, to create and support inclusive work cultures where women's careers can thrive and their achievements are celebrated.

"The maritime industry has made great strides in recent years and is evolving to be a more dynamic, progressive and inclusive environment to work in. We all have a part to play to ensure this continues and improvements in the gender balance are seen across all levels throughout the sector"
