Progress Together

 

Progress Together is a not-for-profit membership organisation working to improve socio-economic diversity at senior levels in UK financial services.

People from working class families are not being given opportunities for promotion within financial services. Progress Together’s 2023 report, ‘Shaping our Economy’, revealed that socio-economic background has a greater impact on career progression than gender or ethnicity.

Progress Together is working to fix the processes, not the people, and create an environment in which all employees can succeed based on job performance, not the circumstances of their birth.

It is doing this by collaborating with financial services firms to come together as a sector, collect and publish data and hold leadership accountable for levelling the playing field.
