About Fidelity International

Who we are

At Fidelity International, we’ve been helping clients plan and invest for their futures for over 50 years. From more than 25 locations around the world, we provide investment services and retirement expertise to everyone from central banks to private individuals. We’re known for acting with integrity and thinking for the long-term.

 Join us and feel part of the progress we’re making. In our welcoming, caring culture, you’ll work with all kinds of people to find new and better ways to help our clients. Your views will be valued, and your professional goals will be supported. And you’ll discover a positive, inclusive environment where you’ll feel free to be yourself.

We are looking for bold ideas, curiosity, and creativity. It’s who you are that matters here, rather than what you studied. All across our business there are experts to learn from, possibilities to explore and new opportunities to take. It takes all kinds of people and ideas to help our clients plan and save for the futures they want - we want to hear from you.

Application process

Our recruitment process at Fidelity is strengths-based. Unlike a competency-based interview, a strength-based interview focuses on what you enjoy doing, rather than what you can already do. Questions may revolve around your passions and hobbies; things that you are proud of and that inspire you. This approach allows our team to gain an insight into your natural abilities; recognising whether you’d be a good fit for us, and also whether we’d be a good fit for you. We recommend checking our website to understand more about our recruitment process.

Culture and values

Our purpose is to work together to build better financial futures. The way we work with each other, our clients, and stakeholders is shaped by our core values of integrity and trust, and embedded through our core behaviours - being bold, brave, curious, and compassionate.

Equity, diversity & inclusion

When you join us, you’ll find that we care deeply about creating a supportive atmosphere where everyone feels valued and free to be themselves. It’s the right thing to do. It also makes our culture richer and our business stronger.

We’ve made huge progress in terms of diversity and inclusion. We’ve created diversity & inclusion networks, made measurable increases in our workforce diversity, and evolved our people initiatives all across our organisation. And we’re committed to improving every day – finding new ways to create an environment where everyone, no matter who they are, feels like they belong.

We have set three company-wide priorities for our global Diversity and Inclusion strategy:

  • Diversity
  • Increasing the diversity of people at all levels of our organisation
  • Inclusivity
  • Strengthening our inclusive culture where everyone’s voice is heard
  • Reputation
  • Enhancing our presence with clients and communities as an inclusive company

To make sure we're able to deliver real change we're concentrating on five global priorities: Cultural Diversity, LGBT+, Enable, Gender, and Social Mobility. And we do more than talk - we act. Our activities include extensive campaign and awareness work, events, programmes, collaborations, and partnerships. Each Diversity and Inclusion priority has defined objectives incorporated into our business goals, and we use data to track progress, as well as measure and audit our performance. We hold senior leaders accountable for our Diversity and Inclusion agenda, and ensure they are driving it from the top.

We also have signed up to several initiatives, including the Valuable 500, the DWP Disability Confident scheme level, the Race at Work Charter, the Women in Finance Charter, and the UN LGBTI Standards of Conduct for Business. We want to look at ourselves objectively, using best-practice standards, and listening to thought leadership so we can continue our journey to being the most inclusive we can be.
