This week, the People Matters #TechHRSG Conference 2025 at Marina Bay Sands Singapore. Helen Snowball, Chief People Officer of PropertyGuru Group had the opportunity to share the stage with fellow leaders for an insightful discussion on "Fair Pay". She talks about how the Group is using “Collaborative Intelligence” to reduce bias and increase fairness in compensation frameworks as we pivot to ace the next curve of change. Helen highlights the critical need for HR leaders to stay ahead of the curve. “It's not just about implementing new tools, but about understanding how they can truly transform the employee experience.”
Our diversity powers our innovation. While 63% of our 1,300 Gurus are female across 30 nationalities, we recognise that true equality requires continuous action at every level. This #IWD2025, we celebrate and thank the incredible women who drive our success and the allies who champion equality alongside them. At PropertyGuru Group, we accelerate action by advancing inclusion as a whole: • Creating a hybrid working environment that accommodates diverse needs. • Implementing equal maternity and paternity leave policies that recognise childcare as a shared responsibility in our Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand offices. • Achieving 53% female representation in our early career hiring programs, cultivating more women in tech. • Developing our Women Leaders Programme to nurture the next generation of female leadership. Looking ahead, we're launching women's employee resource groups in India and Malaysia this year. Together, we're building an environment where inclusion and growth reinforce each other as we power tomorrow's cities. #WeAreGurus #CreateWhatsNext #BeMoreBeAGuru #AccelerateAction
