Prospa has once again been named one of Australia’s Best Workplaces™ for Women, earning recognition for 2026 after also receiving the award in 2025.
The award is presented by Great Place To Work®, based on confidential employee feedback, a thorough review of workplace culture, and insights from the Workplace Gender Equality Agency (WGEA). Simply put, it reflects what our people experience at Prospa every day.
Why being recognised as a Best Workplace for Women in Australia matters
Women continue to face challenges at work, including underrepresentation in leadership and unequal access to career growth. Programs such as Australia’s Best Workplaces™ for Women recognise organisations that are taking meaningful steps to create fairer and more inclusive workplaces.
This is particularly important in industries like finance and technology, where achieving gender balance has historically been challenging. Real progress requires commitment, accountability and consistent effort.
How Prospa supports women at work
At Prospa, this recognition is not the result of a single program or initiative. It comes from how we work together every day.
We focus on building a culture that supports psychological safety, flexibility, inclusive leadership and meaningful opportunities for development. This helps create an environment where women can grow, lead and do their best work.
Compared to similar employers in financial services, the progress is clear. Prospa’s average gender pay gap of 10.8% is well below the industry group’s midpoint of 19.1%, showing a stronger commitment to gender equality than many peers. Our workforce is nearly gender-balanced, with 49% women and 51% men, and women hold a significant share of both managerial and non-managerial roles. These results result from consistent efforts on equitable workforce composition, promotion practices, and ongoing measurement – the key elements for lasting, long-term change rather than isolated successes.
Our ongoing commitment to gender equity
We are committed to making a meaningful difference for both the small business community we serve and for our people.
Being named one of Australia’s Best Workplaces™ for Women 2026 confirms we are on the right path and motivates us to keep building a workplace where women can thrive, lead and help shape the future of Prospa.
Congratulations to the 2026 Best Workplaces™ for Women
The Prospa team is proud to be recognised alongside so many outstanding Australian organisations.
