Our culture in action

Our culture is brought to life by our people, in everything they do. This shows up in the way we truly listen to understand, so we can passionately advocate for our customer’s needs. It’s how we make things easy, simplify the complex and always act as a helping hand; working together to deliver the best value, outcomes and experiences.

But we’re also big on the small things. It’s the way we welcome every new person or customer. The buzz we bring to our offices, stores and clinics; and the warmth we create in our care homes. The way we strive to be extraordinary in the eyes our customers through every interaction.

Customer care during COVID

When COVID-19 hit we knew we had a responsibility to care for our customers by putting them at the heart of our decisions.

For this reason, in April 2020 our Health Insurance team invested over $50M and created the hardship team to support our customers when they most needed it.

Ban the asterisk

Our customers have told us that our products can be confusing and complex when we add an asterisk (*) with fine print in our policies. To respond to our customers’ needs, in 2020 the Product Design Squad was created to make our products simpler, more relevant and personalised. Here’s how putting our customers at the heart of everything helped the team ban the *.
