Gender pay gap report from our Director of People Kate Lefever 

Government legislation requires employers with 250 or more employees to publish statutory calculations every year showing how large the pay gap is between their male and female employees. This statement focuses on the pay gap between men and women across Prior's Court - it does not focus on the differences in pay for a specific job.

We are pleased to report that there is no significant difference between the average pay of men and women at Prior’s Court and that our position shows a higher degree of equality compared with other organisations.

Our gender pay gap (as at April 2025) was -2.4.%. This means that, on average, men were paid less than women. With such a low percentage variance the data suggests that there is no considerable difference between the average pay of men and women at Prior’s Court.

We welcome the positive increases in pay for all staff within the organisation as demonstrated within this gender pay gap report as it is important to us that all at Prior’s Court feel equally valued. We will continue to do all we can to ensure Prior’s Court is a great place to work.
