Empowering Women in Tech: Inside dunnhumby’s Code First Girls Initiative

Category: Gender (Equality & Identity), Training & Development

Gender Focus

As part of our continued commitment to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, we’re proud to spotlight our ongoing partnership with Code First Girls (CFG) — a socially responsible organisation on a mission to close the gender gap in technology through free education and career opportunities.

Through this initiative, we’ve welcomed a cohort of 15 women into our Technology function; a meaningful step in building a more inclusive and representative future in tech careers. Beyond bringing in new talent, our sponsorship also helps fund education for even more women, extending opportunities well beyond our organisation. 

Since joining dunnhumby, the CFG cohort has gained hands-on experience with tools and technical programming languages, while also being mentored through shadowing, pair programming, and agile ways of working, rapidly expanding their skills and real-world experience in technology. 

We’re excited to be running the CFG programme again in September, continuing our commitment to building pathways into technology for women from all backgrounds.
