Altron FinTech – our women in fintech

The technology sector has long been perceived as a male-dominated industry, with fewer women represented and more roles assigned to men. However, the fintech industry has grown in recent years, with more and more roles becoming available to women. The massive growth in fintech over the last decade has created a plethora of new roles and opportunities for both men and women.

Diversity is one of Altron FinTech's core values; we take pride in creating a work environment in which everyone feels they have an equal opportunity to grow and advance in their careers, or even to begin their careers. We are an equal opportunity employer and empowering women in fintech is something we are passionate about.

Altron FinTech is working hard to create a space where women in fintech, irrespective of the field they work in, feel like they have the same or equal opportunity to advance their careers. We already have a number of successful and creative female employees working on our teams.

All of Altron FinTech's employees are encouraged through a personal development programme to further their skills and studies. This gives them the chance to pursue a certificate or degree in their area of interest and further their skills in that field. Altron FinTech is fully funding this, and as a perk for employees, they have free access to Udemy courses.

This is a benefit that is available to all of our employees and is a part of our passion project to upskill our female employees. Employers should support their staff members in pursuing education and employment opportunities. At Altron FinTech, we're fostering an environment where female employees can begin their fintech journeys or step up and develop fintech that could completely transform the market.

We want to create a culture where success and innovation are everyone's top priorities, whether their journey is starting or ending at Altron FinTech.

Altron FinTech is committed to breaking down barriers and providing equal opportunities for women in the industry. We believe that every journey to success begins with someone believing in you and providing you with the opportunity or steppingstones to that success, which is why we are committed to empowering women in the fintech space.

We have some phenomenal women working in our fintech space and we took the opportunity to discuss their journey into fintech and their future hopes for women within the fintech space.
