Renault Group UK recently marked a significant achievement at the Autocar Great Women 2024 event, where six of its senior female staff were honored among the top 100 most influential women in the UK automotive sector. This prestigious recognition, in collaboration with the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT), spans various categories such as Executive, Finance, Marketing, Operations, Talent, and Sales. Notably, these accolades come at a time when Renault Group UK has seen a remarkable increase in female representation within its ranks.
The celebrated individuals have made substantial contributions to their fields, showcasing the depth of talent within Renault Group UK.

Verity Mercer, who began her journey as a graduate over two decades ago, is dedicated to ensuring customers enjoy an exceptional ownership experience. Lina Ribeiro, leading New Car Sales operations since joining in 2002, has played a crucial role in driving the company's success.
The recognition of these six women underscores Renault Group UK's commitment to gender equality within the automotive industry. Over recent years, the number of women in senior positions at Renault Group UK has doubled to 24%, while female representation across the business has increased to 40%. This progress is reflective of concerted efforts to create a more diverse and inclusive workplace.
