What is it Like to Work Here?
“Since day one, I felt like I belonged. Everyone was accepted, my voice counted, no matter who I was speaking with. I’ve built relationships through projects that gave back to our community. That drive led me to co-found two Employee Resource Groups for career development and for women in leadership. 20 years in, I’m coaching future leaders, helping them succeed and move the Bank’s strategy forward.”
Sonia Del Papa
Chief of Staff & Transversal Controls Lead
“Throughout my time at BNP Paribas, I’ve been encouraged to question how things work, and given the room to enhance them. I’ve had the opportunity to lead large-scale operating model & systems transformations across EMEA, APAC and the Americas. My mission hasn’t changed: make it happen – then turn complexity into clarity.”
Benjamin Chrestian
MD, Head of F&S and COO Finance Americas
“I’ve had the opportunity to grow across three continents, helping shape how BNP Paribas manages liquidity, funding, and interest rate risk. 21 years in, I’m still discovering new perspectives on markets and leadership, finding as much satisfaction in developing people as solving complex problems.”
