City executive Jordan Wimmer loses £4m sexual discrimination case

by Personnel Today 4 May 2010

City executive Jordan Wimmer has lost her £4m sexual discrimination case, after a tribunal ruled she was not a ‘persuasive’ witness.

A central London tribunal dismissed Wimmer’s claims for sex discrimination, unfair constructive dismissal, disability discrimination and an unauthorised deduction from her wages, the Telegraph as reported.

Wimmer had also accused her former boss, Mark Lowe, of the hedge fund Nomos Capital, of bringing escorts to business meetings and making ‘disgusting and demeaning’ comments to her.

But a written judgment from the tribunal said: “The attempts made by the claimant during the course of the hearing to corroborate her claims of sexual harassment, put bluntly, backfired.”
