Women in management is now a universal phenomenon. However, they are not equally represented along the hierarchical levels of organizations. Under-representation of women in senior management positions is well documented in the management literature. This paper explains the under-representation of women in civil service of Pakistan through a gender analysis of the federal civil service system. Based on the premise that organizational structure has significant influence on the advancement of women manager the structure of Federal Civil Service has been critically examined. Analysis of three major structural dimensions i) power structure, ii) opportunity structure and iii) numerical representation points to the most subtle forms of biases built in the structure and policies of the organization as a major impediment in women's reach to the top management positions.
