Join us at Ofi Invest!
Since it was founded, Ofi Invest has recruited talented people driven by the passion of asset management and the desire to give the best of themselves. Through its Human Resources (HR) policy, Ofi Invest has strived to place talent development and retention at the heart of its strategy.
In a world that is in full flux, where everything is speeding up, particularly in the financial sector, we must remain innovative, nimble and efficient while maintaining work-life balances.
Developing employees’ employability is a paramount goal at Ofi Invest. That’s why it encourages training, passing on skills, learning new ways to work, and mobility in all its forms.
Ofi Invest is convinced that a company’s success derives from its skills and its employees’ commitment. That’s why it focuses on the key role of corporate spirit and supports many transversal projects.
The Group’s dynamic character and human scale promote proximity, team spirit and nimbleness in its working methods. This is reflected in our employees’ loyalty and commitment.
Ofi Invest is committed to a policy of preventing discrimination and promoting diversity and equal opportunity. As part of that, it ensures the respect and valuing of all differences.
“Our employees come from various horizons and cultures, and their skills go well beyond finance.”

Promoting inclusion and diversity
Ofi Invest has achieved a gender equality index score of 91/100 for 2023.
Ofi Invest pays special attention to integrating women on its governance bodies. Although there is still some progress to be made, it taps into its women’s skills and encourages them to take part in the company’s strategic planning.
Ofi Invest strives to preserve its employees’ health at the workplace, to take disabilities into account and to reflect diversity in each of its components.
Senior Management has adopted a proactive disability policy in preventive healthcare at the workplace and in better hosting disabled employees at the workplace. For this purpose, it calls on diversity specialists to promote inclusion and help disabled employees, as well as their managers. Awareness-raising initiatives are also conducted in-house to support employees in their efforts.
Each year, Ofi Invest takes part into Inclusiv'Day, an annual day for employers committed to diversity of profiles and inclusion of disabled persons.
I believe that diversity and inclusion are essential assets, which go hand-in-hand. It’s not enough to have a diversified group; each person must feel included, respected and listened to.
Through its real-world initiatives and open communication channels, at Ofi Invest we work to create an environment where each employee can find fulfilment and contribute to our success has a group.

Supporting our employees’ well-being
Mechanisms that benefit all our employees.
Ofi Invest is in tune with its employees and has implemented several initiatives to promote their well-being and a healthy workplace environment, including cross-training and yoga classes and massage sessions.
We also have a fitness and weight room on the premises, with lockers and showers. Employees can take part in sporting activity directly at their workplace or elsewhere with weekly football matches, footraces, etc.
In response to its employees’ aspirations for more flexible organisation of work time and a better work-life balance, Ofi Invest allows them to combine work and flexibility with both remote-working and in-person working hours.
Meanwhile, the Group has established a charter of the right to disconnect to encourage responsible use of digital tools, to combat hyperconnectivity and information overload, and to affirm the right to disconnect.
For nine years now, I have been doing yoga at work. This helps me control my breathing better, become more flexible, and learn to let go. Yoga also helps me manage any work stress I may have and while sharing a timeless moment with colleagues from other teams.

Guiding our employees on their career path
Ofi Invest actively supports internal mobility, offering each employee the opportunity to build a fulfilling career within our company. That’s why all open positions are first offered to our employees.
What’s more, we invest in your success through a proactive training policy.
Each year, we devote 1% of our payroll to personalised training programmes that meet identified individual and collective needs.
At Ofi Invest, your professional development is a priority, supported by a framework that values continued learning and professional development.
After four years as an investment grade credit analyst, moving to the Convertibles Desk Analyst position seemed like a natural move. This was an opportunity for me to specialise in the universe of convertible instruments while moving closer to the market. What’s more, this is a newly created position, and is stimulating to work with the portfolio management team in establishing a new work dynamic.

Guiding students towards full-time jobs
In 2023, 90 students were hosted by various Group teams.
Ofi Invest now has about 50 students under work-study or internship contracts. This figure just keeps rising each year, demonstrating Ofi Invest’s desire to offer professional opportunities to students and young graduates in guiding them on their professional paths and in building their future careers.
“Today’s students are tomorrow’s players in the professional world.”
With this in mind, numerous business lines have mobilised to ensure that they are full team members. These include portfolio management, credit/SRI research, business development, product marketing, financial engineering, middle office, reporting, support roles, and so on.
They all strive to see new talents develop.
“As an employer, we encourage student contracts.”
While working on my Master 2 in Corporate Risk Management and Law, I was lucky enough to join Ofi Invest Asset Management under a work-study programme. Working alongside this team, consisting of employees from all horizons, has enriched me personally and professionally. In September, I was hired on a permanent contract and now can’t wait to see where this adventure takes me next.
