Women At AC3

Rise Up was created with the vision to encourage greater participation of women in technology and empower the next generation of female leaders. Rise Up helps members connect, share and learn in a positive, safe and supportive environment. We are committed to building skills, breaking down barriers and enabling meaningful professional and personal growth. We aim to create a strong community that connects women across AC3 and the wider industry, providing education, tools, resources and opportunities for our members and allies. Guided by values of respect, confidentiality, empowerment, shared experience and collective commitment, we support every member in becoming the best they can be.

The Diamond Club is created to reward high achievers at AC3. Membership is nominated by leadership teams and lasts for one financial year. During this period nominated staff are rewarded for their efforts with a range of activities such as, 1:1 coaching, group workshops, opportunities to attend senior leadership meetings, the Diamond Buddy programme and more. We want talented people who continuously try hard, treat people with respect and bring forward new ideas to be not only rewarded but supported in their career growth.

Creating a safe work environment is a priority at AC3. Having multiple avenues to report incidents and supportive colleagues to lean on is vital. Speak Up Advisors is an initiative made up of selective volunteer employees to provide a confidential and supportive alternative contact for AC3ers who experience or witness harassment, that AC3ers do not want to directly approach the People & Culture Team. This team will not investigate complaints but rather, provide information regarding reporting options, be active bystanders and provide vital support.
