Workingmums showcases Citi Group flexible working

Leading financial firm Citi Group employers has been named a Top Employer by www.workingmums.co.uk, the UK site for female-focused employment, in recognition of its diversity and family friendly policies.

Citi Group has joined the new Top Employers platform of jobs and community site www.workingmums.co.uk. The aim of the platform is to showcase large organisations who fit its family friendly criteria which include promoting flexible work environments, encouraging career progress for those who work flexibly and having innovative policies on creating a diverse workforce.

"Citi has recently decided to partner with Workingmums to extend our reach to attract talented candidates to join us," says Carolanne Minashi, Head of Diversity EMEA. "In return we offer a competitive benefits package that looks to meet the needs of individuals who are looking for family friendly employers. One example of this is our award winning Maternity Transitions programme of workshops for pregnant employees, managers of pregnant employees and also for New / Expectant Father's (Opportunity Now Award for Innovation 2009). These workshops are making a significant contribution to increasing the quality of working lives of new Parents at Citi whilst also delivering tangible benefits for our business. We are delighted that Workingmums has included Citi in its 'Top Employers' and look forward to working together."

Research shows that flexible working is a 'win-win' situation for employers and employees. It boosts retention levels for skilled staff and reduces absence levels. Staff who work flexibly say they feel substantially more committed to their organisation as a result and companies who have implemented innovative flexible working policies report huge savings in office overheads.

Dionne White, Sales Director at Workingmums.co.uk, comments:

"Citi has some amazing programmes and policies in place to ensure the working mother is made to feel confident about the career path ahead. The jobs offered by Citi to our candidates are vast -from Administrator, Developer to Head of Finance - demonstrating their commitment to welcoming a diverse range of talent at all levels into their organisation."
