Trasmed: one in two managers is a woman
A growing
number of management and leadership positions in Trasmed's ground staff are
held by women. This is reflected in the company's latest internal data, which
clearly shows progress in female representation in key areas of the
organization. This milestone is particularly significant in a sector where
female presence remains a challenge, making the Spanish shipping company of the
Grimaldi Group a model in promoting gender equality within the maritime and
logistics industry.
More specifically,
the company's 2025 data shows that 50% of shoreside positions of leadership and
responsibility are held by women, well in excess of the average in the maritime
and logistics sector where, historically and globally, female presence in
leadership roles has been low.
Additionally, the analysis of Trasmed’s workforce highlights a year-on-year improvement
in the number of shore-based female employees, with an increase of almost 20%
in just 12 months.
"Our
challenge is to continue advancing in the integration of female talent at all
levels of the company, ensuring that daily operations, leadership and
decision-making reflect greater diversity," says Trasmed Head of Human
Resources Leonor Jaudenes.
This
challenge does not only concern activities on land, but also those on ships.
"We’re aware that the maritime sector worldwide still needs to
incorporate more women into onboard operations and, at Trasmed, we’re working
every day to make further progress in terms of equality," Jaudenes
explains.
She says
that a tangible example of this progress is the growing presence of women within
the maritime sector in jobs that have historically been held by men. At
Trasmed, "more and more women are taking up key positions in the
company’s daily operations: these include captain, chief engineer, deck
officer, provision master and engine room crew." Their inclusion and
leadership in these roles, the HR manager concludes, “reinforce the
company’s commitment to equal opportunity and diversity in an industry that has
traditionally been male-dominated.”
