Volunteering

Citi Belgium colleagues work on a regular basis with Les Salanganes, a shelter for children aged 2 – 16 years. Les Salanganes has become a second family for our employees. You’ll find them painting bedrooms, building swings in the garden or taking the children out to parks.

Diversity and Inclusion

Citi Belgium is part of the Benelux Citi Women Network. While the network name specifically refers to Women, the network looks at diversity and inclusion in a much broader sense. Citi Belgium hosts a number of significant Diversity events for clients, the public sector and other Belgian market stakeholders, as well as internal employees promoting Citi’s flagship research on the impact of women in the economy. If you are interested in engaging with us on diversity and inclusion please contact our Media and Corporate Affairs Officer.

Alumni

Citi Belgium has a strong and active alumni network. Current Alumni ambassador Christa Cammaert has recently taken over the leadership from Honorary Ambassador Lode Beckers, who was instrumental in launching the network. Former Citi colleagues can join by applying on www.citialumninetwork.com.
