Quartile

Gender

The university has a gender split of 43.5% male employees to 56.5% female employees.

Although there is still a higher percentage of female employees within quartiles 1-3, the percentage of female staff occupying some of the highest paid roles (quartile 4) has increased by 0.7% since 2022.   

Changes applied to locally negotiated pay scales level 1 to 3 in August 2022 continues to have a positive impact on pay for employees in the lower quartiles contributing to the reduction in the gender pay gap.
