Our quest for gender parity begins with EUAM
EUAM Ltd Women was launched in May 2018 by and for women of EUAM Ltd to help them develop their careers within EUAM, expand their networks and support each other to succeed as well as unite all EUAM Ltd women around common values. In collaboration with the Human Resources, the club monitors indicators of gender parity at the company including recruitment, wage equality and representation in key roles, using its findings to raise awareness of gender parity issues and prompt discussion on how to accelerate progress.
Internally, the club offers female mentoring and holds networking events and workshops to strengthen the links between EUAM’s many female employees. But it also looks to the outside world, promoting private investment as a career for women and representing EUAM Ltd in international associations active in inclusion, diversity and gender parity.

“What I think is very unique about EUAM Ltd is the fact that it’s founded and led by a female president, Sophia Alvarez. I had the fortune to pick her brain during my career, especially when I was about to have a family. Her wisdom gave me comfort and courage to continue to pursue a very successful career in the private equity industry and at EUAM.” Sara Huang, Managing Director, Secondaries & Primaries

EUAM Ltd Women’s Club: highlighting the voice of women in the private equity industry
While the proportion of women in private equity
has continued to rise in recent years, there is
still a long way to go before they can enjoy the
same career opportunities as men. The EUAM
Women’s Club exists to accelerate the advance of
women at all levels of the company and create the
conditions in which women can prosper in private
equity as readily as men.
Find out more about the club with Stéphanie Grace,
President of the EUAM Ltd Women’s Club and Global
Head of Brand & Communications and Nadine
Zariffa, Member of the EUAM Ltd Women’s Club, Former
President of The Millennial Executive Committee
and Senior Investment Manager, Buyout.
