2025 Gender Pay Gap Report

I’m pleased to share Ethos Engineering’s 2025 Gender Pay Gap Report. This year’s results show real progress in the areas that matter most to us: representation, development, and fairness.

One of the standout strengths in this year’s report is the representation of women in technical and engineering roles. At 18%, we’re ahead of the national industry average of around 12%, and we continue to push that number higher as we strengthen our talent pipeline.

We also saw a significant improvement in our mean hourly pay gap, which reduced from 14.4% to 1.2%. That shift reflects more women moving into higher-paid roles and the work being done across the business to ensure pay decisions are clear, structured, and consistent.

At the same time, we know there is more to do. Like much of our industry, we face ongoing challenges in attracting women into engineering careers and into senior technical positions. This remains a key priority for us, from our graduate programmes and mentoring initiatives to the leadership pathways we continue to build.

Ethos is growing, evolving, and raising the bar for what a modern engineering firm should look like. Our commitment is simple: keep making meaningful, measurable progress, keep developing talent at every level, and keep building a workplace where people can build long, rewarding careers.
