Mortimer Spinks and Computer Weekly Women in IT survey 2016

Cover Image

The Mortimer Spinks and Computer Weekly Women in Technology Survey 2016 found there is a noticeably higher proportion of women among those working in tech for five years or less. Just over 30 per cent of our female survey respondents have been in a tech job for less than five years, compared to 19 per cent of men. Compare that to the more experienced part of the IT workforce, where 70 per cent of men have been in tech for 10 years or more, against just 45 per cent of women.

  • 1/5 senior tech jobs (Director/VP/C-level) are held by a woman.
  • The number of women in head of department roles has doubled to 7% in the past year.
  • The number of women participants working in contract roles rose by 32%.
  • 93% of technologists who were cross-trained into tech from other departments said it helped progress their careers.
  • Women in tech are 32% less likely to begin careers in technical design roles.
