Advantage Solutions Inc. (NASDAQ: ADV), a leading provider of sales
and marketing services to consumer goods manufacturers and
retailers, today announced that it has been named a “Corporate
Champion” by the Women’s Forum of New York. The recognition is
given to publicly traded companies with a board of directors that
is composed of at least 40% women. This year, the group is honoring
233 S&P 500 and Fortune 1000 companies for reaching or
surpassing that threshold.
“At Advantage, ensuring we have diverse perspectives,
backgrounds and experiences is at the heart of the company’s
culture, and is a critical factor in our company’s success,” said
Dave Peacock, CEO of Advantage Solutions. “Our commitment to
diversity in the boardroom is just one facet of our mission to
advance all women in business. We’re proud that nearly two-thirds
of Advantage’s workforce are women, and we are a better business
because of it.”
The Women’s Forum of New York’s Corporate Board Initiative is
focused on accelerating the advancement of women on boards across
all industries and on striving to achieve gender balance on
corporate boards by 2025. To achieve this goal, the Women’s Forum
is driving change from the top by convening and honoring CEOs and
board leadership and acknowledging their pivotal role in
prioritizing gender parity as a business imperative.
“We are enormously proud of the work we have done to accelerate
and celebrate female board representation since launching the
Breakfast of Corporate Champions (BCC) over a decade ago,” says
Janice Reals Ellig, BCC Chair and Founder and CEO of Ellig Group.
“We know more needs to be done and will continue our strong focus
as we look forward to growing the number of S&P 500 and Fortune
1000 companies achieving gender balance.”
Members of Advantage Solutions’ board include Virginie Costa,
group chief financial officer at Wella Company; Tiffany Han,
director at CVC Capital Partners; Jodie Macedonio, chief financial
officer of Meati; Robin Manherz, executive vice president and chief
operating officer of SAP SE; and Deborah Poole, a C-suite leader in
the consumer goods, consumer technology and e-commerce sectors.
