Toks is a Global Relationship Director for Barclays focusing on Healthcare and Consumer Retail clients. Toks is also a Co-Chair of Barclays Black Professionals Resource Group (BPRG) in the Americas where we works to support the attraction, retention, development, and engagement of Black professionals at Barclays.
In 2020, Toks, and the BPRG Leadership, helped the bank respond to colleagues, clients, and communities looking for Barclays to take action on DEI with the production of a research paper titled “Path Forward” that laid a clear plan of action. The document eventually became the company’s Global Race at Work Agenda, recognized in the Barclays annual Citizenship & Diversity Awards in 2021.
Committed to taking DEI externally, Toks, regularly supports the bank in engaging with local communities to support high school students with access to advice, mentors, and opportunities at Barclays. Toks has also led, as an ambassador, the Race at Work Client Engagement workstream, where Barclays collaborates and partners with clients to share best practices and ideas on D&I engagement.
