DEI at Experian

At Experian we want to create a better tomorrow for people, organisations and communities around the world. To do that we need to start with ourselves – making sure diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) runs through everything we do. That’s something we never forget – and we’re incredibly proud of the diverse culture we’ve created and are continuing to grow. We know everyone is an individual and makes a unique contribution, and our diverse workforce ensures that we can better understand and represent our consumers and customers. The different backgrounds and experiences that our employees bring to their teams drive innovation and create an inspiring workplace.
