I am pleased to share Switalskis Gender Pay Gap Report 2025, reinforcing our commitment to fairness and transparency in the workplace.

The data is based on a snapshot of hourly rates of pay as of April 2025.

We employ two main groups: Fee Earners (FE) and Non-Fee Earners (NFE), and the overall gender pay gap is influenced by how males and females are distributed across these roles.

Females make up 81% of our workforce (307 of 380 employees), with over 80% of that 81% in non-fee earning roles.

Males account for 19% of employees, with 47% of that 19% being in non-fee earning roles.  To provide a clearer and more representative picture, we analyse pay separately across these groups.

Among Fee Earners, males earn on average 12.67% more than females, showing broadly similar hourly rates. For Non-Fee Earners, males earn around 30% more, reflecting the higher proportion of males in senior, higher-paid roles such as Management, IT and Finance.

Overall, the mean gender pay gap is 20.9%, but this does reflect the workforce split in relation to the number of males we have in senior positions within the company.

At Switalskis, we remain committed to fostering an inclusive workplace where talent is recognised and rewarded fairly. We continue to review our practices to promote equality across all roles.
