Hachette UK on The Times Top 50 Employers for Women 2011 list
Hachette UK is proud to have been named one of The Times Top 50 Employers for Women 2011, a high profile list developed by Opportunity Now, a workplace gender equality campaign and part of Business in the Community.
This award reflects our commitment to attracting, supporting and retaining the best talent in publishing. Dominic Mahony, Group HR Director, says: "We are very open to people doing good work in whatever way suits them. We are much more about evaluating the quality of the work done, rather than when it is done, and that applies as much to men as it does to women."
Our commitment to promoting and supporting women in publishing goes beyond our employment policies. It is demonstrated in our publishing across all divisions but particularly in Virago, one of the most vigorous, stylish and successful British publishing imprints. Virago is the outstanding international publisher of women's literature. It is the largest women's imprint in the world and, for over 30 years, has made commercial success of publishing books of quality and originality.
