The recent news that three major financial institutions have been ranked among the top employers for women is a positive sign for the banking and finance industry. Principality Building Society, Coventry Building Society and Santander have all been recognised for their commitment to creating an inclusive and diverse workplace. This is a great step forward for the industry, which has traditionally been male-dominated.
Principality Building Society is a mutual organisation owned by its members, and has long been committed to promoting gender equality. The organisation has a range of initiatives in place to ensure that women are able to progress and develop within the organisation. This includes flexible working arrangements, mentoring programmes and leadership development opportunities. The organisation also has a dedicated Women in Leadership network, which provides support and guidance to female employees.
