Finmeccanica UK

“We want to challenge outdated stereotypes and to create an inclusive and diverse working environment where all our people will fulfil their potential and develop their talents.”

Sir Brian Burridge, Senior Vice President, UK Corporate, Finmeccanica

Within Finmeccanica, Diversity and Inclusion matters to us because:

• There is a correlation between our success and having a diverse workforce
• The variations within our workforce create innovative ideas and lead to business success
• As we compete in a global and diverse marketplace, it is our aim to continue developing a diverse workforce
• If people are feeling respected and trust in the workplace, they will be more productive, creative and willing to take risks and drive change

We are committed to ensure that Diversity and Inclusion is part of our company’s fabric. Our Equal Opportunities and Diversity policy supports our actions through becoming a more effective employer of the best talent.

Our ongoing objective across all Finmeccanica companies is to attract, retain and engage the best talent. We always seek to increase Diversity and to balance our people distribution across all levels of the organisation. While all aspects of Diversity are important to Finmeccanica, we are focusing strongly on gender diversity given the historically low female representation in the engineering sector. Therefore there is need for change and proactive solutions. We acknowledge that this change will not happen immediately and diversity will not happen spontaneously but Finmeccanica is willing to innovate and set the right foundation for its businesses to foster Diversity and Inclusion.
