Top Employers Institute and Great Place to Work say we’re one of best companies to work for worldwide. Such praise is the result of Santander’s great talent and policies to create a diverse, inclusive and sustainable work environment. This is what it’s like to be part of our group.
With the advent of things like green finance, Big Data and cyber security, work has been changing like never before. In recent years, a wealth of careers has emerged or evolved to handle global needs and concerns in a new landscape shaped, by and large, by technology.
Workers and jobseekers alike have grown more discerning about not just pay conditions but also corporate values.

What’s the best part of working at Santander?
Our 2021 Global engagement survey found that 86% of Santander employees believe the bank treats them fairly, no matter their age, marital status, gender, disability, race, colour, religion or sexual orientation. Across our footprint, we strive every day to make our company appealing to people already on our teams or looking for work, in line with our Strategic plan for diversity, fairness and inclusion.
Many employees enjoy working at Santander because:
- Diversity and inclusion: Women make up 54% of Santander’s workforce, 40% of our board of directors and 26% of our senior management (on track towards our target of 30% by 2025). And we’re seeing progress with several goals to spread awareness and close the gender gap — women make up 40% of our board of directors and 26% of executive roles—, thanks to several initiatives we run to promote equal opportunity from the inside out. As a result, we featured as the top bank on the 2022 Bloomberg Gender-Equality Index. We also attach great importance to the inclusion of people with physical or intellectual disability in academic and work settings. Alongside Fundación Universia, we’ve helped more than 6,800 people.
