Wells & Co Gender Pay Gap Report - Year End 2025
Gender Pay Gap at Wells & Co
At Wells & Co, we’re committed to building a fair, inclusive workplace where everyone is rewarded for their contribution. Our gender pay gap data reflects the makeup of roles across the business, not unequal pay for doing the same job.
Our people
We employ 526 colleagues in the UK, with a near-equal gender split:
51% men
49% women
This balance underpins our approach to attracting, developing, and retaining talent at every level.
Pay at a glance
The mean gender pay gap is 21.26%
The median gender pay gap is 10.04%
The lower median gap shows that pay across the majority of our workforce is relatively balanced. The higher mean gap reflects a small number of higher-paid roles that influence the overall average.
Women in higher-paid roles
Women are strongly represented in our upper pay quartiles:
Over 60% of employees in both the upper-middle and highest pay quartiles are women
This demonstrates real progress in supporting women into senior and higher-paid positions across the business.
Bonus pay
Bonus eligibility is similar for men and women
While the mean bonus gap reflects role seniority, the median bonus gap is in favour of women, showing an even and fair distribution of bonuses for the majority of employees
Looking ahead
We’re proud of the progress we’ve made, particularly in female representation at higher pay levels. We also know there’s more to do. That’s why we continue to focus on fair progression, transparent reward practices, and creating opportunities for everyone to succeed at Wells & Co.
