Liber, powered by the Entrepreneurship Centre at Oxford Saïd and generously supported by Santander Universities, is a 5-month collaborative programme that brings together University of Oxford undergraduates from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic backgrounds with start-ups, scale-ups, SMEs and innovation departments within larger organisations. The programme aims to increase access to leadership positions within business for people from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic backgrounds by providing experience in varied and fast-paced environments, access to networks and personal development coaching.

Our information-sharing session with the Women+ in Leadership group at Strathclyde University is focused on encouraging and attracting women to the financial and consulting services industries. We provide helpful tips for job applications, guidance on how to break into the industry and emphasise the importance of having more women in the financial services sector.

Together, we delve into areas like Robotics Process Automation (RPA) and other innovative tech trends, fostering discussions with students that drive forward-thinking solutions. This collaboration allows us to merge academic insights with industry expertise, creating a vibrant platform for knowledge exchange.

Valentia Partners places great emphasis on recruiting top talent, and we believe that universities are a great place to start. That's why we're actively recruiting at key universities to find the best and brightest individuals who are looking to jumpstart their careers in the consulting and financial services industry.

Valentia Partners is committed to supporting and mentoring the next generation of business leaders. As part of this commitment, the firm has engaged with the MBA programme at University College Dublin. Through this engagement, Valentia Partners has had the privilege of mentoring and supporting a number of MBA students as they complete their programme. By providing these students with guidance and insights gained from years of experience in the industry, Valentia Partners hopes to help them succeed and achieve their goals as they embark on their own professional journeys.
