Australia: Which jobs are becoming women-only?

Article here. Excerpt:

'If you are a man at a senior level in marketing, public relations or human resources, hang onto your job like grim death. You may not get another one.

These jobs are fast becoming women-only.

Companies that have blithely operated as a boy’s club at senior levels are coming under intense pressure to promote some women – but rather than doing the hard work to change blokey cultures, they are using a “quick and dirty” approach.
By hiring only women into the top roles in the traditionally female-dominated areas of marketing, HR and PR, they make an immediate impact on their gender balance performances.

You can understand why they are doing it, and achieving gender equity is complex and difficult stuff, but this approach is not helpful for a number of reasons.'
