Ethnic minority marketers face 8.5% pay gap, survey reveals
Slow progress has been made on marketing’s ethnicity pay gap problem and perhaps most concerning is the impact it has on the happiness that ethnic minority marketers are finding in their role.
Marketing’s persistent ethnicity pay gap continues to be a stark issue for the industry to address – even if it has improved slightly compared to last year.
Marketing Week’s exclusive 2024 Career & Salary Survey shows that marketers from ethnically diverse backgrounds are paid, on average, 8.5% less than their white counterparts. This figure is a slight improvement on the 10.3% registered in 2023 and a vast improvement on the 23.7% from our 2022 edition.
