KPI: Women applicants who gain roles with TfW
The percentage of women applicants who are successful in acquiring a TfW role. We are working to build a diverse team that mirrors the communities we serve.
Overview
The percentage of women applicants who secured roles at TfW increased slightly to 36.7% in Q2 2025/26, compared to 35.1% in Q2 2024/25. While the improvement is incremental, it reflects positive progress in our efforts to attract and appoint more women into roles across the business. This supports our broader commitment to diversity and inclusion.

5. A Wales of Cohesive Communities
Forward look
We are committed to being one of Wales’s most inclusive employers, working with community partners to extend our recruitment reach. In November 2025, we’ll launch the second Routes into Employment scheme - part of our Pathways programme - supporting underrepresented groups, including young people, women, by providing valuable experience and employability skills.

KPI: Colleague retention
The percentage of TfW colleagues who remain working with the organisation across the quarter. We monitor this in conjunction with why TfW colleagues leave the organisation to devise initiatives to reduce attrition and increase employee retention to reduce the negative impact on TfW’s performance.
Overview
Retention remained strong at 98%, consistent with previous periods and indicative of a stable workforce. Leavers were mainly due to retirements and voluntary resignations. Importantly, we retained our early talent - graduates and apprentices - by successfully placing them in roles across the business, supporting our commitment to internal growth and capability building.
