International integrated facility and aviation services business ABM has launched its first Women's Impact Group in the UK and Ireland.

The UK and Ireland group will focus on promoting a culture that values the contribution and leadership of women at ABM while advancing the understanding of what an equitable and inclusive work environment for women should look like.

The group will partner with the executive steering committee to identify clear pathways for women team members at ABM to enter leadership roles and create avenues that support mentoring, recruiting, and development of women within the business.

The first order of business is to collect insight from around the business, all of which will inform the strategy for the group's inaugural year. People of all genders across ABM's industry groups are welcome to join.

Susan Mason, UK & Ireland IT director and Women's Impact Group member comments: "The enthusiasm which this group has been met with has been fantastic. This is a historically male-dominated industry and so it is refreshing to see the encouragement and support that has been given to a group set on making incremental change."
