Sarah Bennett

Director, Citi

Sarah is the Chief Administrative Officer of EMEA Risk, reporting to the EMEA Chief Risk Officer.

Sarah’s career at Citi has spanned 29 years from when she originally started at Salomon Brothers as a Credit Associate and she has held global and regional roles within Citi’s independent Risk group.

Sarah’s current role offers an interesting set of challenges, as it focus not only on the regional staffing, budgets and strategy for all Risk groups but also the implications of the current Regulatory and Control environment.

In addition to her regional role Sarah has been the co-chair of the Citi Women diversity network in London for the last 4 years, which has over 1000 members, is a lead for the Risk group Women’s network (GROW) and is an EMEA Community Ambassador and Alumni of the Women’s Leadership Development Program – a program for high potential female talent ran by UCLA in New York, on behalf of Citi.

Sarah lives in Essex with her husband and son and enjoys traveling, theatre and the arts.
