All three of BNY Mellon’s sites in Ireland (in Cork, Dublin and Wexford) have a focus on empowering our employees to address key societal challenges that they care about through our Community Partnership programme. This includes supporting community organisations that exist to address unemployment and inequality by offering skills development opportunities to their beneficiaries. Notable examples of where our teams across Ireland have made a significant positive impact on these issues include:
“Employees across Ireland are very engaged with supporting our local community partners and I think it is important that we support and give back to our local communities in this way.” Aoife says. "I am proud of philanthropic work the company does, not only in Ireland but on a global scale" adds James "and it’s personally very rewarding to support diverse groups with their unique challenges and also to help young people develop their skills in finance and technology.”
