Building on a successful first year, we are renewing our partnership with Premiership Women’s Rugby – with the same shared goal of redefining what inclusion and equal opportunity look like in both elite sport and the built environment sectors.

Our paternity/partner leave was extended in June 2024 from eight weeks’ full pay to twelve weeks.

At Wates, we have been awarded Level 3 – Disability Confident Leader status, recognising our dedication to supporting our people to thrive and succeed.

We’re proud to shine a light on our female leaders and hear their career advice on succeeding in the built environment.

In honour of International Women’s Day and our official partnership with Premiership Women’s Rugby, we spoke with Georgie Perris-Redding.

Together, Wates and PWR are looking to drive a powerful change, with the shared goal of redefining what inclusion and equal opportunity looks like in both rugby and the built environment industry.

We’re dedicated to providing opportunities for professionals like you to thrive and grow. Join our talent community today!

We’re enhancing  our paternity leave policy. Effective immediately, we are increasing fully paid paternity leave from 8 weeks to 12 weeks, reinforcing our commitment to supporting employees and their families.
