Description
Our mission is to promote gender equality within the financial world by increasing the calibre, confidence, and supply of female graduates from which institutions can source their talent.
About us
The University of Bristol’s Women in Finance Society was founded in 2016 by three first-year students with the aim to instil confidence in fellow female students and provide them with support, guidance, and both a professional and social network.
We have established a non-competitive, supportive, and collaborative community for our members to find out about the opportunities in finance, and to develop the skills to succeed.
The society was awarded Most Inspiring Committee at the Bristol SU Society Awards 2018 and Gold in the Bristol SU Balloon Accreditation Scheme.
What we do
Industry and company visits for practical exposure, gaining insight into industry parctices, career exploration and networking opportunuties
Stock Pitch Competitions and other Challenges to develop financial literacy and other essential skills for financial careers
Talks, discussions and panel events with finance professionals to learn about opportunities in finance and receive career guidance
Workshops to build confidence and skills, improve CV and Cover Letter writing, and develop a better understanding of different industries
Support and guidance for roles and applications
