SAS Earns Top Rank as a Women-Friendly Workplace in 2020

Why SAS Continues to Be a Top Workplace in the UK

Another Year of Recognition

Earlier this year, the analytics powerhouse SAS was honored as one of the UK’s best places to work for the fourth year in a row, according to the Great Place to Work ranking. That’s like winning a gold medal in the work‑life Olympics—pretty impressive!

Culture that Adds, Doesn’t Fit

As Charles Senabulya, VP & Country Manager for SAS UK & Ireland, puts it: “At SAS, it’s not just about fitting into the culture—it’s about adding to it. We want every employee to feel free to voice ideas and know they’ll be heard and respected for their unique strengths.”

WIN: Women’s Initiative Network

A vibrant community of SAS employees who champion women’s success.
It empowers, encourages, and inspires women to excel at work and in life.
Members act as ambassadors, sharing their time, experience, and expertise to build future female leaders.

Great Place to Work’s Take

Benedict Gautrey, Managing Director, UK, expressed enthusiasm: “We’re thrilled to see so many stellar organizations in the UK’s Best Workplaces™ for Women list. Issues like pay parity and career progression remain hot topics, so this ranking helps spark crucial conversations.”

He added, “Thanks to the insights from successful companies, we’re raising awareness about fair pay, recognition, training, development, and work‑life balance.”

Global Reach, Local Impact

SAS operates in 147 countries with nearly 14,000 employees spread across 59 nations. Women represent almost half of its workforce, and over 40% of global leaders are women—proof that diversity fuels success.

Flexible Work & Comprehensive Benefits

The company’s HR policies are crafted to attract, retain, and empower women across all levels. Flexible working arrangements and top‑tier benefits help keep the team motivated and engaged.
