Martyn Dicker

Director of People, UNICEF UK (Now Battersea Dogs and Cats Home)

As Chair of the Charities HR Network (CHRN), Martyn grew the organisation to nearly 200 members and delivered a successful conference with 93% attendee satisfaction. At UNICEF UK, his progressive EDI strategy has produced notable results: the gender pay gap is now below zero, and the ethnicity pay gap has reduced for four consecutive years. Representation for Global Majority colleagues has reached 27%, with LGBTQIA+ and disabled representation also at high levels. Martyn also led changes that saved UNICEF UK £1.5 million, ensuring the charity could deliver maximum impact during difficult global circumstances.
