The Financial Services Skills Commission is an independent, not for profit, member-led body, representing the UK’s financial services sector on skills. We work directly with the sector to ensure that businesses have the talent and skills they need for the future.
The financial services sector employs around one million people across the UK and plays a vital role in driving the economy. However, it is at a pivotal moment. The sector faces huge technological and demographic changes.
Our purpose is to increase the supply of talent and skills across the sector, and influence lasting change. Working collaboratively with our members, we drive change on the sector’s skill gaps, and develop an approach that supports more reskilling, motivating learning, upskilling and attracting talent.
Since our creation in 2020, we have grown to around 45 members who collectively employ around one third of the industry’s workforce.
