Experian

Who are Experian?

We are the world’s leading global information services company. During life’s big moments – from buying a home or a car, to sending a child to college, to growing a business by connecting with new customers – we empower consumers and our clients to manage their data with confidence. We help individuals to take financial control and access financial services, businesses to make smarter decisions and thrive, lenders to lend more responsibly, and organisations to prevent identity fraud and crime.

We have 20,000 people operating across 44 countries and every day we’re investing in new technologies, talented people, and innovation to help all our clients maximise every opportunity. We are listed on the London Stock Exchange (EXPN) and are a constituent of the FTSE 100 Index.

We are proud of the actions we have recently taken to support our colleagues. Here are just a few examples:

• We actively celebrate and recognise a range of events to raise awareness and encourage support. This includes Pride, International Women’s Day, International Men’s Day, Black History Month, International Day for People with Disabilities and Mental Health awareness week.
• We are very proud of our partnerships with external organisations who continue to both support and challenge us. Stonewall, Investing in Ethnicity, Business Disability Forum, Working Families, and MIND to name but a few.
• We offer 26 weeks full paid maternity cover and have recently introduced support for those taking fertility treatment and additional leave if their baby is born premature. We also offer all of our employees an additional 5 days family care leave, for those emergencies that we just cannot plan for or when emotionally we need to take some time away.
• Development is important at all stages of your career at Experian. We have partnered with Code First Girls to help us encourage more women to join our business, we run an internal female development programme called ‘Accelerate’ and work with the 30% Club to provide both mentors and mentees to help boost female representation within business.
• As a data company we know that numbers are important. We disclose our targets and progress against the number of females in our senior leadership team as well as the ratio of men to women across our business.

Employee Networks

Each and every one of our people deserves to feel valued, represented, and that they belong at Experian. We have a number of employee-led groups that play a huge part in creating inclusion and advocating on behalf of our people.
