About AuthentiCity

AuthentiCity is an event, supported by Stonewall, created exclusively for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Trans* (LGBT) undergraduates looking to explore career opportunities in the City. You’ll get to speak to representatives from six worldwide firms, who’ll be providing a valuable insight into their work and sharing their experiences of being LGBT in the workplace. Get involved and we could show you just how much you can accomplish while still remaining true to who you are.

With major firms from six different industries, AuthentiCity gives you the chance to engage with experienced individuals and begin to form an idea of where your potential career may take you.

Every firm participating is a globally recognised organisation. Together, they work to make a positive impact and actively strive for equality and diversity in their respective fields.

Who should attend

If you have career aspirations in Legal, Investment Banking, Professional Services, Fund Management, Insurance or Real Estate – or you simply wish to explore what these industries have to offer – then this event is for you.

Many people believe their gender or sexuality can put them at a disadvantage when looking for jobs. Our aim, above all, is to help put your mind at rest, open your eyes to the wide range of options available, and encourage you to show the world what you’re really capable of.

AuthentiCity is a day for diversity, meaning you’ll be in amongst a talented group you can identify with. This is an opportunity to engage with relatable individuals and ultimately help us improve the way businesses view the LGBT community.

We welcome students in their first, second, or final year at university. If you are intrigued by any of these sectors and wonder what they can do for you, this is a great chance to ask plenty of questions and address any doubts you may have.

To attend, you must:

  • Be either Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual or Trans*
  • Currently studying at a UK university and finishing your studies in 2017, 2018, 2019 or 2020.
  • Motivated to explore careers in these industries and meet LGBT professionals. Please specify on your brief cover letter why you want to attend.
  • For those travelling from outside London, up to £75 of standard travel will be reimbursed.

Any questions, please email authenticity@staffordlong.co.uk

The next event will be held on Wednesday 21st June 2017 at 15:00 – 19:00. To register your interest and to find out when applications open, please click the button below.
