"Signing of the charter marks our commitment to see gender balance across financial services and our work to build a fair, balanced and best place to work in the sector."
- Tandem's chief people officer, Steve McNicholas
Tandem Bank has become a signatory of the Women in Finance Charter, backing the Government and industry’s push for gender balance in financial services.
The Charter, launched by HM Treasury, commits signatories to supporting the progression of women into senior roles across financial services.
The charter makes four pledges:
1. Having a member of the senior executive team who is responsible and accountable for gender diversity and inclusion.
2. The setting of internal targets for gender diversity across senior management.
3. Publishing of progress annually.
4. An intention for pay of the senior executive team to be linked to these targets.
Tandem's chief people officer, Steve McNicholas, said: “Culture is such an important thing across any business, but Tandem’s transformation has meant it is even more so. Diversity and inclusion are at the heart of that. And I couldn’t be prouder of the steps we’re taking to ensure we are leading the way in creating female role models that lead and inspire the next generation of female leaders.
“Signing of the charter marks our commitment to see gender balance across financial services and our work to build a fair, balanced and best place to work in the sector.”
