It’s a depressing assumption in our industry and I’m sure you’ll have heard it. If you’re talking about an engineer or technician, people will assume ‘he’. The data highlights how stark the gap is – just over 10% of these roles are currently held by women in the UK telecoms market. Women are clearly deterred from taking these roles... that’s half the labour market being put off from some of the most important jobs in our industry. At Vorboss we are committed to playing our part to change this. Women already make up over a third of our engineering and technician roles. Now we’re going a step further. In collaboration with Ofcom and their ‘women in tech’ pledge, we are aiming to be the first network operator to have full gender parity in these roles by 2027. Through tailored works clothing and period days, to enhanced parental leave and welfare vans supporting our staff in the field – we are committed to breaking down barriers for anyone who wants to have a career in digital connectivity.

It’s not enough to hire based on certifications and digital skills alone, but hiring for durable skills doesn’t just mean “going with your gut” on a candidate. Megan O'Connor's presentation at Women in Tech DC tomorrow will apply a framework for incorporating durable skills in to your talent recruitment and development strategy. https://lnkd.in/g5VZXF7M #techskills #softskills #skillstraining #futureofwork
