5 Strategies to Attract and Retain Women in Finance 2024

Innovation and success in any industry relies on gender diversity.

Despite leaps forward in recent years, corners of the finance industry continue to struggle attracting and retaining female talent, particularly in leadership roles.

As we move into 2024, it’s crucial that we address this imbalance with targeted strategies that attract and retain women in finance. Creating not just great team members, but role models.

This post outlines five key approaches that do exactly that. Drawing on our experience as professional recruiters, to draw women into the finance industry and ensure they stay, thrive, and lead.

Let’s get started…

1. Redefining Recruitment

women in finance recruitment

The journey towards gender diversity begins at recruitment.

Our research indicates that job descriptions often inadvertently appeal more to male candidates. To change this, focus on inclusive language that resonates with female values, such as collaboration and community, while ensuring qualifications are not unnecessarily restrictive.

By clearly communicating core values and using technology to assess the inclusivity of our job adverts, you can attract a broader, more diverse talent pool.

2. Embracing Flexible Working

Flexibility is no longer a perk but a fundamental expectation, especially for working parents.

Recognising this, consider flexible working arrangements that accommodate the needs of your employees, irrespective of gender. This approach not only aids in attracting female talent but is essential in retaining them, ensuring that team members do not have to choose between their career and personal life.

Your commitment extends beyond flexible hours to fostering an environment where such choices are respected and supported.

3. Make Female Role Models Visible

Visibility matters.

Highlighting the achievements of women in your organisation not only celebrates their contributions but also inspires others.

By showcasing the diverse paths to success within Finance, you can motivate and encourage women at all levels of their career.

This strategy is pivotal in building a culture where women see themselves reflected in their leaders and feel a stronger sense of belonging and possibility within the finance industry.

4. Promote Mentorship and Career Development

female leadership recruitment

Access to mentorship and targeted career development opportunities can significantly impact women’s career trajectories in finance.

By establishing programmes specifically designed to support women, you provide tools and networks necessary for gender diversity.

These initiatives should be supported by both male and female leaders, ensuring they are inclusive, equitable, and effective in preparing women for leadership roles.

5. Addressing Unconscious Bias

female recruitment in finance

To create a truly inclusive workplace, tackling unconscious bias is essential.

Through comprehensive training and the use of HR technology, commit to ensuring your hiring practices, promotions, and performance evaluations are fair and unbiased.

By understanding and mitigating these biases, you can make more informed decisions and foster a culture that truly values diversity and inclusion.

Conclusion

As we look forwards in 2024, these five strategies are at the heart of attracting women into finance and ensuring they feel valued, supported, and empowered to ascend to leadership positions.

Gender diversity is not just a metric to aspire to, it’s a reflection of your dedication to building an inclusive, dynamic, and innovative finance sector.

What do you think of these 5 points? Are there any that we may have missed?

If you’re committed to hiring high-quality, behaviourally suited talent, let’s connect and discuss how we can redefine your recruitment process, ensuring each new hire is not just an addition but a lasting asset to your mortgage business.

Hiring Mortgage Brokers: Employed vs Self-Employed

As we step into 2024, mortgage brokerages are facing a new set of challenges and opportunities.

Since the 2020 pandemic, the landscape of work has evolved dramatically, and with these changes come crucial decisions for business owners, particularly in the mortgage brokerage sector.

One such decision is whether to hire employed mortgage brokers or self-employed mortgage brokers. This choice can significantly impact your business’s flexibility, cost structure, and overall success.

In this guide, we’ll explore the pros and cons of each option, helping you navigate this important decision.

The Case for Hiring Employed Brokers

employed mortgage brokers

The stability and consistency offered by employed brokers is more valuable than ever.

With the economic landscape constantly shifting, having a dedicated team can provide the steadiness needed to navigate uncertain times.

Here are the biggest advantages of employing in-house mortgage brokers for your brokerage.

Advantages of Employed Brokers

Steady Workforce: Employed brokers offer a stable and reliable workforce, which can be crucial for maintaining consistent service levels and building long-term client relationships.
Brand Loyalty and Development: Having employed brokers allows for a stronger company culture and brand loyalty, an essential point of separation in today’s competitive market.
Streamlined Management: Managing a team of employed brokers often leads to more streamlined operations, as you have more control over work schedules and processes.

Challenges with Hiring Employed Brokers

However, this model isn’t without its challenges. The financial and managerial commitment to employed brokers is significant and requires careful consideration.

The two key drawbacks with hiring in-house are:

Higher Overhead Costs: Employing brokers means additional costs such as salaries, benefits, and contributions to taxes and National Insurance.
Less Flexibility: Employed brokers may have less flexibility in their schedules, which could impact your ability to offer services outside standard business hours.

The Benefits of Self-Employed Brokers

The flexibility of self-employed brokers is an attractive proposition. They can provide agility and adaptability, which are crucial in responding to market changes and client demands.

Here’s why self-employed brokers might be the ideal way for you to grow your brokerage:

Advantages of Self-Employed Brokers

Adaptability to Market Changes: Self-employed brokers can quickly adapt to changing market conditions, providing your business with the agility to respond to fluctuating demands.
Diverse Skill Sets: They often bring a range of experiences and specialisations, adding value to your service offerings.
Cost-Effective Scaling: This option allows for scaling your workforce up or down without the long-term financial commitments associated with employed staff.

Challenges with Hiring Self-Employed Brokers

Relying on self-employed brokers can also present its own set of challenges, particularly in terms of consistency and control over service delivery.

Less Control: You have less oversight over the working methods and standards of self-employed brokers.
Inconsistent Availability: Self-employed brokers may juggle multiple clients, which could affect their availability and response times for your projects

Making the Right Decision for Your Brokerage

Your decision should be informed by a thorough analysis of your business’s current needs and future aspirations. Consider factors like workload consistency, financial flexibility, and long-term strategic goals.

Business Model and Volume: Consider your business’s operational model and the volume of work. Employed brokers might be better for steady, high-volume workloads, while self-employed brokers can handle fluctuating demands.
Budget and Financial Goals: Analyse your financial capacity. Employing brokers involves more fixed costs, whereas hiring self-employed brokers can be more variable and performance-based.
Long-Term Business Strategy: Think about your long-term goals. Do you value building a consistent team and brand, or do you prefer the agility and diverse skill sets of self-employed brokers?

Hiring Mortgage Brokers: Employed vs Self-Employed

In 2024, the decision to hire employed or self-employed brokers is a strategic choice that can shape the future of your business.

By understanding the advantages and challenges of each option, you can make a well-informed decision that aligns with your business objectives and positions you for success in the evolving marketplace.

The Power of Hiring on Behaviours

In the puzzle of recruitment, hiring the right person goes beyond assessing skills and experience.

It should involve understanding the candidate’s behaviours and how these align with the role and company culture.

The cost of overlooking this aspect is an expensive one, its estimated that a bad hire can set a company back a whopping £100K.

This figure includes the time and money invested in recruitment, onboarding, training, and salary.

Why Behavioural Surveys Should Be Your First Step

Surprisingly, many businesses still rely solely on traditional hiring metrics like skills and experience. Yet, they often end up terminating employment due to behavioural mismatches. So, why not assess behaviour before offering a contract?

Incorporating behavioural surveys at the outset, rather than as an afterthought, can provide crucial insights into how well a candidate will fit into your team.

A smart approach is to evaluate your star performers in similar roles and develop a benchmark profile. This profile can then be used to gauge how well potential candidates align with the traits that lead to success in your organisation.

Key Benefits of Behavioural Hiring:

Improved Team Dynamics: Ensures new hires complement existing team members.
Reduced Turnover Rates: Matches candidates with roles suited to their natural tendencies.
Increased Productivity: Places individuals in roles where they can excel naturally.
Enhanced Job Satisfaction: Employees are more content and engaged in roles that align with their behaviours.

For instance, if your top performers are outgoing, innovative, and self-driven, a reserved candidate who prefers structured tasks might struggle to integrate. This mismatch not only affects the individual’s performance but can disrupt team dynamics.

In The Real World: Vista Equity Partners’ Approach

Robert Smith, the founder, Chairman, and CEO of Vista Equity Partners, a prominent private investment firm, underscores the value of behavioural assessment in recruitment. Vista requires all employees and recruits to undergo a personality-and-aptitude test. This approach helps in assigning people to roles where they’re likely to excel. For example, sales roles are better suited to extroverted individuals, while software development may suit introverts better.

The focus is on finding the right person for the job, irrespective of their background or credentials. This strategy has led to a diverse workforce, with 35% of Vista’s portfolio-company employees being women, and has been crucial in their success in acquiring and growing over 500 software companies.

The Benefits and Beyond

Behavioural hiring is a fundamental shift in the recruitment paradigm. It allows for a more equitable and unbiased approach to talent acquisition. Moreover, it identifies individuals who, although they might not have the most impressive resumes, possess the potential to excel and grow within the company.

At NRG Resourcing, we understand the value of behavioural testing in enhancing employee retention and ensuring a harmonious team dynamic.

Our approach is tailored to identify candidates who not only have the requisite skills but also exhibit behaviours and values that align with your company culture.

Curious about how behavioural testing can revolutionise your hiring process? Book a free, no-obligation call with me to discuss how we can integrate this powerful tool into your recruitment strategy.

Inclusive Recruitment: Equity, Diversity & Inclusion in Your Business

Imagine a team where every member brings a unique perspective, where differences in thought and experience are not just accepted, but celebrated.

This is the essence of inclusive recruitment—a business strategy that goes beyond checking boxes, aiming instead for diverse talents and voices.

But what does this mean in practice, and how can it transform your business?

The answer can be found in three very important terms:

Equity
Diversity
Inclusion

Let’s take a look at what these mean…

Understanding Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (E, D & I)

inclusive recruitment

Equity:

At its core, equity is about fairness. It’s recognising that each individual has different circumstances and allocating the exact resources and opportunities needed to reach an equal outcome.

Equity focuses on a level playing field, which doesn’t necessarily mean treating everyone the same, but rather giving everyone what they need to be successful.

In the workplace, this means fair access to opportunities, resources, and pathways for all employees, regardless of their background.

Diversity:

Diversity is not limited to physical attributes like race, gender, or age. Instead, it extends to a range of personal characteristics including, but not limited to, cultural background, religious beliefs, sexual orientation, socio-economic status, and even thought processes and life experiences.

When we talk about diversity in the workplace, we’re referring to an environment that embraces and celebrates these differences, understanding that a variety of perspectives can lead to richer discussions, more creative solutions, and a more holistic understanding of the client base.

Inclusion:

Inclusion is about actively ensuring that all individuals feel valued and integral to the success of the organisation.

It’s not just about having diverse individuals in your team, it’s about making sure that their voices are heard, respected, and considered in decision-making processes.

Inclusive environments are those where individuals feel safe to express their opinions and perspectives, and where their contributions are valued.

Why Diversity and Inclusion Matter

Ignore E, D & I at Your Peril…

Groupthink

Groupthink is a psychological phenomenon where a desire for harmony within a group can lead to poor decision-making and a lack of innovation.

In the commercial world, it has led to the downfall of giants. A classic example is Kodak, which, despite its early successes, failed to adapt to digital photography, leading to its near demise.

Neuroscience suggests that our brains crave certainty, which can make us risk-averse and more prone to groupthink or group polarisation.

In environments like this, being agile and attentive — qualities essential for anticipating and navigating inflection points — becomes challenging.

The Solution

One of the most effective ways to combat groupthink is by diversifying your workforce. When people from various backgrounds, with different experiences and perspectives, come together, it naturally leads to a richer pool of ideas and solutions.

By putting idea-sharing and collaboration at the forefront, and encouraging members from different sectors to challenge preconceptions, you can foster innovation and help organisations to adapt more effectively in a volatile world.

Mitigating Risk and Building Reputation

Issues like the gender pay gap and forthcoming regulations on disability, race, and ethnicity reporting are becoming increasingly important.

Brokerages that fail to address these issues risk damaging their reputation and losing trust among stakeholders.

Incorporating E, D & I in Recruitment

So, how do you weave equity, diversity and inclusion into your recruitment process? Here are some actionable steps:

Revamp Your Recruitment Strategy: Ensure that your recruitment partners understand and value equity, diversity and inclusion. They should be equipped to attract a diverse pool of candidates and be aware of unconscious biases that might creep into the hiring process.
Foster Inclusive Candidate Experiences: From job descriptions to interview processes, every step should reflect your commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion. Consider blind recruitment processes, where candidates’ personal information is hidden, to reduce bias.
Engage Diverse Talent Pools: Actively seek out candidates from underrepresented groups. This might involve partnering with organisations that focus on diverse talent or attending career fairs and events aimed at a wide range of demographics.
Train Your Team: Educate your hiring managers and teams on the importance of diversity and inclusion. Training in unconscious bias, cultural competence, and inclusive communication is vital.
Feedback and Improvement: Continuously seek feedback from candidates and employees about your recruitment process and company culture. Use this feedback to make necessary improvements.

Taking Action

Inclusive recruitment isn’t just a nice-to-have; it’s a must for businesses looking to thrive in today’s diverse world. It starts at the leadership level.

Ask yourself, what does equity, diversity and inclusion mean to you and your company? Are you ready to embrace a strategy that not only fills positions but enriches your workplace culture?

If you’re committed to hiring underrepresented talent and reaping the benefits of a diverse and inclusive workforce, let’s connect and discuss how we can redefine your recruitment process, ensuring each new hire is not just an addition but a lasting asset to your mortgage business.
