Geraldine Evans, Prosperity 24/7’s chief operating officer, said it wanted to create a “transparent and inclusive culture” for all.

She said: “We believe that reporting on the gender pay gap is an essential tool to ensure transparency and drive progress.

“The experimental earnings and gender pay gap report produced by Statistics Jersey in June 2023 highlighted that the gender pay gap was highest in the information and communications sector at 28% and we wanted to see how we compare.”

The report from Statistics Jersey found the gender pay gap remained at 14% – the same as in June 2022.

Marisa Hamon, Prosperity 247’s HR Director, said the sector was committed to equal representation.

She said: “It is understandable that there is a gap in a traditionally male dominated sector such as IT.

“Attracting female talent to the IT consultancy industry remains a considerable challenge with cultural bias often associating men with technical roles which discourages women from pursuing IT careers.”
