Background

Sajid Javid was born on December 5, 1969 in Rochdale, United Kingdom. He is one of five children of his parents who are of Pakistani descent. His father filled in as a transport driver. His family moved from Lancashire to Stapleton Road, Bristol, as his folks assumed control over a shop there, and the family lived in a two-room level unit above it. His father's business was in a famously bad spot of Bristol and Javid has joked about observing a prostitute remaining outside the shop as a child.

Javid studied Economics and Politics at the University of Exeter where he joined the Conservative Party.

Career

As a member of the Conservative Party, he was named Home Secretary on April 30, 2018. He has been a Member of Parliament for Bromsgrove in Worcestershire since the general election of 2010.

Working in finance, he climbed rapidly to wind up as a managing director at Deutsche Bank. He was chosen as the MP for Bromsgrove in 2010 and was elevated to Economic Secretary to the Treasury and later Financial Secretary to the Treasury. His finance experience became valuable as he entered the world of politics.
