Creating Balance
Our people and culture have always been a huge priority at AO. Any success we experience comes from our people being who they are, loving what they do and striving to reach their full potential. We know this will only happen if we create a working environment where people feel equal, as well as supported on their journey through the business.
The legislation requires us to report our mean and median pay gap, bonus mean and median gap, the percentage of male and female AOers who received a bonus payment and the percentage of males and females in each pay quarter.
2026 Gender Pay Gap Report
AO is committed to diversity in the workplace
Statement from John Roberts, CEO.
“At AO, we’re on a mission to be the UK’s most trusted retailer, underpinned by brilliant people who thrive, grow and do their best work in a diverse, equitable and inclusive culture. Our recent acquisition of musicMagpie also gives us the opportunity to extend AO’s established approach to pay transparency and equity across a wider group of colleagues. The results of this year’s Gender Pay Gap Report show steady progress.
