Diversity
Of the 68 new partners, 39 have been promoted internally, while 29 have been attracted from competitors and the industry. From a diversity perspective, 13 of the 68 new partners are women, bringing the share of women in EY’s leadership to over 30%. 8 of the 68 are BME, which takes EY’s BME partner population to 3%. “While we are moving in the right direction to achieve our goal of a more diverse workforce, it is still clear that we must continue to keep diversity at the heart of our business in order to support the UK’s focus on this important issue. Diverse teams make better business decisions – it’s a commercial imperative,” says Liz Bingham, Managing Partner for Talent, UK & Ireland at EY.
