The gender pay gap and the ecommerce industry

What's the deal with the gender pay gap and the ecommerce industry? Are women and men still affected by it? 

Jonathan Hall, our panda chief and founder, speaks out about the decreasing pay gap in our salary survey response for APSCo. 

5 key takeouts from his comments include:

1. The breakdown of women to men within the sector is promising: 53% male and 47% female.

2. At most levels within the industry, women are paid slightly less than males, however the gender pay gap is decreasing.  

3. Although there are more men in senior roles, a higher number of women are now working within managerial positions and are often earning more than their male counterparts. 

4. For the first time in our salary survey history, female ecommerce superstars have made it into the £90k and above wage bracket. 

5. Men tend to spend more time than women in the office, with an average working week of 39.7 hours. That's 2 hours more than female survey respondents.
