  ABSTRACT: Even a decade ago, the field of Diversity Equity and Inclusion—as a field and as a specific job title—did not exist. Today, the field has hit an apex—likely as a result of the corporate zeitgeist with the “business case” for diversity consistently in the forefront of business news, demonstrating organisations with diverse workforces are more innovative, more profitable and have better staff retention. This research study aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) practitioners in Australia by analyzing LinkedIn profiles. The study examines career patterns, job titles, industry distribution, and gender representation among DEI officers. Using a dataset of 1000 profiles, we investigate average employment durations, career shifts, and part-time DI roles. Our research utilizes descriptive statistics and visualizations to highlight key insights. By leveraging LinkedIn data, we enhance insights into the roles, tenure, and impact of DEI practitioners, contributing to a deeper understanding of this field’s dynamics.
