Claremont supports some of the most prominent companies in the UK with their Oracle E-Business systems, including Human Capital Management (HCM). One of the core elements of our managed services offering addresses the HR function, including pay and gender inequalities.
This is something we focus on for our clients, so it’s only right that we look at the same areas in our own business, and adopt a proactive attitude to the progression of women in IT.
Meet Janet Stirling-Paget – a female tech in a man’s world. Janet is a managed services Database Administrator at Claremont and joined the business 3 years ago. Janet has 2 boys aged 11 and 8, and juggles motherhood and a busy job working with multiple clients.
To help Janet manage the balance between work and home, Claremont offers flexible working arrangements for those that need it. This flexibility allows Janet to come into the office two days a week and work from home the rest of the time, allowing her to be available for her boys when she needs to be. Being an IT company, support and mentors are only a click of a button away and on joining Claremont, Janet was assigned a mentor so is able to spend one-on-one time with her mentor or receive assistance from any of the team, should she require it.
