The importance of diversity at Rothschild & Co

Respect for diversity and an inclusive culture are central to our success

Our clients and the firm 
To form our distinct perspectives as a group, we need a diverse team that can respond to our global business needs and interact with clients and colleagues in various settings around the world. This means building an environment where diversity and difference are valued.

Our people 
Our culture is inclusive and collegiate, by which we mean that we foster a sense of teamwork, respect and partnership in everything we do rather than promoting an internally competitive culture. We encourage everyone to build a wide network across the firm to benefit each other and, importantly, to bring the entire Rothschild & Co network to the client. This has a direct impact on the type of colleagues we look to recruit, promote and retain.

Internal networks

We support various personal development initiatives through our internal networks and also membership of external networking organisations and forums to connect our professionals and promote inclusivity across the firm.
