Women now make up 50% of Pelican Bus + Coach’s senior management team.

The Yutong supplier says this achievement positions Pelican as a leader in promoting gender diversity within the transport sector and demonstrates its commitment to building a more inclusive workforce.

Ian Downie, Head of Yutong UK, said: “The transport industry has long been male-dominated, but we’re proving that change is possible. At Pelican, we strongly believe that diversity drives business innovation and success. Our commitment to inclusion and diversity comes from the very top. A diverse culture enriches our workforce and drives innovation in everything that we do. This senior team has driven the success of Pelican Yutong in the UK and we are excited that our diverse workforce continues to develop and lead Yutong sales and aftermarket support within Pelican.”

Katrina Hogan, Yutong Aftersales Manager, said: “Managing Yutong’s aftersales is a dynamic and challenging responsibility, and I’m proud to lead a team that is making a real impact for our customers,”. Yutong’s success is driven by the dedication and talent of both the women and men on our team.  Several women play key roles here, and alongside their male colleagues, they are helping us achieve great things in this industry.”
