We launched new working group, Women in Telecoms, in September 2022 to sit alongside our existing Industry Developments and Operations working groups.

This group has been created to meet a growing demand from our members to give women working within our industry a regular opportunity to network, share career experiences, discuss hot topics and exchange ideas. Outputs feed into other groups as appropriate.

The group was started by Katie Baron from Gamma and Tracey Wright from Magrathea. In 2024 the Group selected new Co-Chairs – Natalie Strange from RPS Telecom and Lauren Croxson from Sangoma who now lead the group.

We hope this working group provides a tangible way for our members to demonstrate commitment to women’s development. By encouraging women on your team to join ‘Women In Telecoms’, you can actively support them with their career goals as well as giving them a voice on the key issues impacting our industry.

We hold quarterly meetings either online or in person.

In 2024, we opened the group to a wider telecoms industry so non-CCUK members can join for free this year.

If you would like to join the group, please register by emailing Michaela@commscouncil.uk.
