OSB Group has joined the Financial Services Skills Commission (FSSC) to move its skills agenda forward by identifying opportunities for upskilling as well as contribute to the FSSC’s strategy and operations.
The FSSC is an independent, not for profit, member-led body, representing the UK’s financial services sector on skills. The organisation works directly with the sector to ensure that businesses have the talent and skills they need for the future.
OSB Group has become a ‘founder’ member, the Commission’s highest level of corporate membership. It will contribute to the Commission working groups to drive change on the sector’s skill gaps and offers an opportunity for best practice to be shared.
Orlagh Hunt (pictured), chief people officer at OSB Group, said: “I’ve been in post for almost six months now and one of my first recommendations was for OSB Group to join the FSSC as I know firsthand of the amazing work they do for the sector.
“I’m also delighted to become a board member as I’m a big advocate of lifelong learning and growth. I’m really passionate about helping individuals and teams find different opportunities to learn and upskill so I’m looking forward to getting started.”
Claire Tunley, chief executive of Financial Services Skills Commission, added: “OSB Group, through Orlagh’s guidance, will bring a wealth of experience to the Commission and our ambitious programme of work.
“We’re delighted to welcome Orlagh and OSB Group’s 2,000 employees to work with us, and our other members, to address the skills gap facing the financial services sector.”
