Rachel Waters, Deputy Head of Platform Technology at Man Group, provides her insights into the direction of inclusivity of women and underrepresented groups within the financial industry in the future.

Man Group is a leading global investment management firm, specialising in alternative investment strategies. They offer a diverse range of investment solutions to institutional and private investors worldwide.

“What I would love to see is that nobody walks into a meeting or a team, at Man Group or in this industry, and sees nobody that looks like them or nobody who’s like them. It should be the norm that people feel at home when they come into the industry, and I don’t think we’re there yet.”

“Just four interventions in somebody’s early life can convince them that there is a path into these careers for them. There’s people that have no idea that these careers exist, and when someone goes into a school and talks to them about this job and they hear that message or we invite them back for an insight day into the office, they get this idea that ‘actually, if I do work hard and I’m smart, I can do these jobs and this is an option for me.’”
