Benefits available include critical illness cover, dental insurance, retail vouchers, partner life assurance, travel insurance, health screenings, healthcare cash plan, gym membership, cycle to work scheme and more. Availability of these benefits will vary by location.
Additionally, discounted terms on Quilter products are available for you and your family.
Recognition
Recognition is an important part of the Quilter culture. Each year, we run the Quilter Awards, which are a very popular way for colleagues to recognise one another.
Colleagues nominate those in the business for the contribution they make and the way in which they embody our values of ‘pioneering, dependable and stronger together’. There are 10 Quilter awards in total - three for each of our three values and one overall Spirit of Quilter award.
Anyone can nominate anyone for an award. They are a great opportunity to create a common and uniting thread of pride across the Quilter businesses. In 2020, the awards received approximately 1,000 nominations giving the judging panel a really tough, but enjoyable, job selecting the winners.
Throughout the year, our employees can nominate and reward colleagues with prizes for exceptional performance, behaviour and actions characteristic of our values.
