We are pleased to announce a significant step forward in our ongoing investment in Italy. As part of our 2021–2027 strategic plan, we are set to hire 1,000 new colleagues in Italy in 2025, with a focus on young talent. Our campaign “Follow Your Talent. It Will Lead You to Us” is aimed at inspiring young people under 30 to join our Italian commercial network.
Since 2021, we have already welcomed 4,800 new team members in Italy and a total of 9,000 across Group-level operations worldwide. These new hires continue to rejuvenate our workforce. Notably, the percentage of colleagues under 35 in Italy has nearly doubled from 7.7% to 14% over the past four years.
Why This Matters
At UniCredit, we believe in the transformative power of younger generations and the strength of an intergenerational work environment. Investing in young talent not only supports their professional growth but also fosters sustainable success for our bank.
In this campaign - accompanied by two videos featuring young colleagues from UniCredit Italy - we share how UniCredit is a company where you can grow, unlock your potential, and contribute to the success of our clients and the regions in which we operate.

Ilaria Maria Dalla Riva, Head of COO Italy & People and Culture Italy, concluded:
“This initiative aims to position UniCredit as the bank where everyone, especially the younger generations, can express their full potential. Together, we can create a positive impact for our clients and communities.”
