Suzie Walker Executive Search awarded Women Owned business certification
We are delighted to announce that Suzie Walker Executive Search has been awarded Women Owned business certification by WEConnect International.
WEConnect International is a certifying body, accrediting businesses that are at least 51% owned, managed, and controlled by one or more women. WEConnect International ensures that women across the world have the same opportunities as men, to design and implement business solutions that create wealth and sustainable prosperity.
As FTSE 350 companies focus on the social impact of their policies, it has become clear they want to do more business with women-owned businesses – a crucial step towards greater gender diversity and inclusion.
At Suzie Walker Executive Search, two-thirds of senior roles are held by women and 61% of senior leadership candidates we have placed in the past three years were people who identify as women – helping our clients to ensure greater gender diversity and inclusion within their senior leadership teams. This is significant at a time when 96% of CEOs in FTSE 350 companies are men (Women Count 2022 report, The Pipeline).
Suzie Walker says, “I am thrilled that WEConnect International has awarded us with Women Owned business certification – I passionately believe in supporting talented people from all backgrounds to reach their full potential. Following recent reports from The Pipeline and Girls’ Day School Trust, it has never been more important to improve gender diversity and inclusion for all businesses and senior leadership teams.”
