Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

We believe in the power of unique perspectives and want all voices in our organisation to be heard, respected and valued.

OUR STRATEGY

The FT Group is committed to becoming a more diverse organisation and promoting inclusion as both an employer and a publisher. Our 2023 impact report provides an update on recent efforts to advance social and environmental change within our operations and in our communities.

REPORTING OUR PAY GAPS

Since 2017, we have published annual gender pay gap reports for the UK. Our gender pay gap has continued to close as more women take on senior roles across the FT. Since 2020, we have also published our ethnicity pay gap. Read our latest report.

AUDIENCE DIVERSITY

Our Audience Diversity team works to engage and reach a broader readership. In 2022, we conducted research to identify underrepresented demographics and develop proactive measures to broaden our reach across subscriber demographics.

EARLY CAREERS

We are committed to diversifying the future of journalism through our various social outreach opportunities, including our flagship News School programme.

EMPLOYEE RESOURCE GROUPS

Our Employee Resource Groups play an integral role in connecting individuals and providing a sense of community and culture in the workplace.

NEXT GENERATION BOARD

The Next Generation Board (NGB) is a diverse group of global emerging leaders who are paired with a member of the management group. The reciprocal mentoring, idea exchange and fresh perspective helps make the FT more inclusive and collaborative.

TALENT DEVELOPMENT

The FT offers a number of programs designed to support diverse talent across the business. We help advance the development of our employees through mentorship, coaching, sponsorship and networking opportunities.
