Diversity

At Barclays Wealth, we actively promote diversity to sustain continued business success and ensure we’re bringing in world-class professionals, whatever their background. It’s long been our commitment to:

  • Build a workforce that reflects the communities in which we live

  • Ensure that the talents of all our employees are fully utilised

  • Create a working environment that encourages dignity and respect

  • Build a reputation for fairness, integrity, innovation and creativity

Employee Networks

Diversity is a business imperative and we value it as such. Our employee networks bring together people from similar backgrounds and interests, with established Gender, Multicultural, LGBT, Disability, Age and Families & Parenting groups already up and running.

Providing support for professional and personal growth for members, these networks are open to all employees and aim to:

  • Establish a strong network of contacts and support

  • Encourage the development of professional relationships across Barclays Wealth

  • Promote personal development through discussion forums and spotlight lunches

  • Increase diversity awareness across Barclays Wealth

  • Provide information and links to external networks and organisations

To help us recruit the brightest minds we also work with a number of external agencies. We are proud to be a partner of Shaw Trust, a national charity that works with employers and disabled people to match talent to outstanding opportunities, and we also work with Rare Recruitment, an organisation that connects exceptional people from diverse backgrounds with great jobs in top organisations.
