Marston Holdings is thrilled to announce an incredible achievement at last night’s Women and Diversity in Credit Awards, where we proudly took home four prestigious awards that recognise our commitment to creating an inclusive and empowering workplace.

The Women and Diversity in Credit Awards mark an important evolution from the original Women in Credit Awards, broadening the focus to celebrate inclusivity across all aspects of diversity within the credit and financial services industries. This expansion highlights the commitment to recognising not only the remarkable achievements of women but also the individuals, initiatives, and allies driving change towards a more equitable future.
At Marston Holdings, these awards are a testament to our people and our shared vision; creating a workplace – and an industry – where everyone feels valued, respected, and empowered. They reflect the principles that guide us every day:
- Doing Things Right – Upholding integrity and fairness in everything we do.
- People People – Putting people at the heart of our culture and decisions.
- Push for Better – Driving continuous improvement and innovation.
- Stronger Together – Building success through collaboration and inclusion.
These values are not just words, they shape our actions and define the culture that earned us recognition as Employer of the Year and for our Inclusive Workplace Initiative. Congratulations to all the winners and nominees who are making a difference every day!
