Ellen works for Triodos Bank UK, spreading the word about how our money has the power to change the world for the better.

Her work focuses on talking about the amazing organisations that Triodos Bank supports with loans. This includes: communities generating their own renewable energy, an electric bus company and many organic farmers!

Triodos Bank also provides bank accounts to individuals like you and me, so Ellen’s job is to show the public that by choosing a different kind of bank they are building a greener, fairer future.

Surprising bit? “We regularly go out to visit Triodos customers and partners. This has included a day on a farm and another in a forest!”

Official job title: Senior Marketing Manager

Earning: £55,000 – £65,000

Workplace: Ellen works surrounded by screens and plants! In her office she has lots of collaboration space, which is useful because her role is all about teamwork! For example, she works with charities, like Friends of the Earth and the Soil Association, to find ways that they can protect the planet and its people together.

Ellen also works with more traditional ‘bankers’ who look at complying with rules and regulations to keep customer money safe.

Ellen does lots of presentations at events, but her team is also very customer focused, making sure information is up-to-date on the website and answering emails.

Best bit? “Knowing that I’m working for an organisation that is trying to change the world for the better.”
