Having worked for EquiLend for over 7 years, the company's approach to having a work-life balance has also changed. The company has added more flexibility, which has motivated me to give more and go above and beyond for the company. I feel this approach suits my needs to be able to manage family life as well as being able to maintain a career.

I began in Client Services where I gained the expertise to support the full-service offering. From there I stepped into a client-facing role expanding my skill set on the relationship management side of the business. As the company continues to innovate, I’ve been able to gain new skills and develop my position in the market as an industry expert.

It’s simple. Sit on the floor next to everyone else! I also make it known that my virtual door is always open, even if I appear to be working intently on something. Collaboration is vital to the success of our business, and it doesn’t stop at the C-suite.

Great ideas can come from anywhere in the organization. So employees of all disciplines are encouraged to participate in an annual innovation contest, where we hear directly from the people who drive EquiLend’s success on how to make our business better. Last year’s winning proposal was successfully released in a proof of concept beta test.

I’ve never experienced a more motivating work environment than here. People at EquiLend are working hard, but the main thing is, they are happy to work hard, to be creative, to build this house.

EquiLend is a great place to accelerate your career and grow with smart, ambitious individuals. Since we're small, I’ve been given greater responsibility and worked on a wider range of tasks than I would elsewhere, allowing me to expand my skill set.

EquiLend hires talented people and empowers them to bring their unique skillsets and ideas to the table. It’s important to me to work for a company that values diverse perspectives and embraces those who think outside the box, and I have that here.

EquiLend does a nice job of affording all employees access to the firm's key strategies & initiatives. The firm also allows a representative voice to everyone in the organization no matter what their role at the company is.
