Fix Auto UK joins automotive gender equality club
Fix Auto UK has underlined its commitment to automotive gender equality by joining the Automotive 30% Club as a Silver Member.
Founded by Julia Muir in 2016, the Automotive 30% Club focuses on increasing female representation in the automotive sector.
Fix Auto UK managing director Ian Pugh joins 72 forward-thinking CEOs and MDs across the automotive industry who have committed to the shared goal of ensuring at least 30% of key leadership and decision-making roles are held by women.
The news comes after Fix Auto Mid Devon’s finance director, Alena Woolacott, was celebrated as one of the Automotive 30% Club’s Inspiring Automotive Women last year.
Pugh said:
“At Fix Auto UK our people culture, which is built on the principles of collaboration, transparency and trust, has been at the centre of our value led strategy. By joining the Automotive 30% Club, we’re taking a significant step toward fostering a diverse and gender-balanced network, which is essential for our success.
“As a vital component of our Environmental, Social, and Governance strategy, this initiative will drive positive disruption in the industry and build on the excellent progress already spearheaded by Julia.”
Muir added:
“I am extremely pleased Ian and the forward-thinking Fix Auto UK team have joined The Club. Together we will seek solutions to attract, promote and retain high performing teams that can rise to the challenges of the industry transformation that is taking place, and we will work to ensure that women in the accident repair sector will thrive as well as their male peers.”
