I am honoured and proud to be recognised as one of the five finalists for Women in the City's Future Leaders Award. For aspiring leaders this highlights that irrespective of your age, gender or industry, success is possible for anyone who is determined enough to seek out opportunities and make the most of them.

Victoria was appointed as the RBS Learning Manager for Corporate & Institutional Banking in 2009, responsible for the learning strategy for c.2000 people across the UK and parts of Europe. Having joined RBS in 2001 Victoria has worked across several roles including Strategic Marketing for Business & Commercial Banking.

Victoria is the Deputy Chair for the RBS Focused Women's Network dedicated to supporting the Group in attracting, retaining and developing female talent. Her role includes expanding the network globally and managing an effective framework to support the development of volunteers. Over the last three years Victoria has raised directly or through volunteers over £50,000 for a variety of charities.

In addition to this Victoria is a trustee to a small north London charity dedicated to supporting people with MS to live their life to their full potential.
