As the Global Finance lead and member of the Global PRISM leadership team, Paul has been instrumental in driving the Bank of New York Mellon’s vision to ensure LGBT+ individuals are welcome, valued and can reach their full potential. He has been actively involved in numerous initiatives and activities promoting geographical diversity and increased focus in areas where LGBT+ is seen as a disadvantage. In 2020, because of their work and allyship, BNY Mellon signed the amicus brief to support the 28th Amendment to the US Constitution guaranteeing equal rights for all Americans, regardless of sex, and in 2019 Paul helped introduce the handbook for managers and employees: Transgender Guidelines: Gender Transition, Identity and Expression. Outside of BNY Mellon, Paul was the secretary for FuSIoN in 2019 and 2020, helping future colleagues realize how Financial Services in Ireland is an inclusive and welcoming industry for all.
