In this episode, Katrina and Geoff speak to Sue Noffke, an Aston University alumna who has built a successful career in the finance sector. Graduating in 1989 with a degree in business and biochemistry, Sue gained early experience in investment during her placement year at Schroders, a global asset management company. She returned to Schroders post-graduation and has risen to head its UK equities division, managing a portfolio worth 6 billion pounds. Sue shares insights into her role, detailing the responsibilities of overseeing investments and the importance of equities in the market. She discusses the rarity of spending an entire career at one company, attributing her longevity to a blend of autonomy, stability, and continuous learning opportunities at Schroders. Sue also touches on the gender dynamics within the finance industry, noting its male-dominated nature but emphasising the importance of visibility and role models for women. She also provides advice for those interested in a role in fund management!
