Sparta Global nominated for two Women in Tech Awards!

Sparta Global has been shortlisted for two 2023 Women in Tech Employer Awards; Best Tech Employer (over 500) and Best Employer for Training.

For both awards, Sparta Global showcased why gender balance is critically important to our hire, train, deploy organisation, how we have implemented change to break down barriers for women in technology, and what we do differently to other employers in our space.

 

• BEST TECH EMPLOYER (OVER 500 EMPLOYEES)

This award recognises employers with over 500 employees who have demonstrated an outstanding effort over the past 18 months to attract and retain women in their IT/ Technology departments.

• BEST EMPLOYER FOR TRAINING

This award is for employers whose commitment to employee’s professional development is evident through the training programmes they offer. You’ll need to demonstrate how your training programme/s help women in tech to upskill, to make them eligible for promotions and more senior opportunities. 

 

At Sparta Global, we are committed to removing barriers to entry for women looking to kickstart careers in tech, while simultaneously breaking through the glass ceiling for women to progress in leadership roles too.

In addition to providing women with funded training opportunities across a variety of technical specialisms, a salary from day one, and the opportunity to secure their first role with our clients, in early 2023 we launched Sparta’s Athena Academy.

The Athena Academy offers women the chance to join, learn, work, and grow into future tech leaders – providing them with the confidence, skills, and connections to build a profitable and powerful tech career. Trained by an award-winning female training team, and learning alongside a small all-women cohort, the Athena Academy is a supportive and safe space for women to push the limits of their potential.
