We have five principles that help us make better decisions and guide our day-to-day behaviour. These principles are:

• Be human
  We treat those around us the way we’d like to be treated – openly, honestly and respectfully.
• Deliver what matters
  We make sure we understand what matters to every client and we make it happen.
• Stronger together
  Only by working together can truly serve our clients.
• Keep it simple
  We remove complexity.
• Do what’s right, not what’s easy
  We back ourselves to make the right call. We speak up.

We expect employees to demonstrate these principles in how they work with each other and our clients.

IOOF recognises the benefits of diversity where people from different backgrounds can bring fresh ideas and perceptions. This helps make the way work is undertaken more efficient and effective and our company’s products and services more valued. IOOF’s diversity policy focuses on improving the representation of:

• women in senior roles
• Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders
• people whose first language is not English
• people from lower socio-economic backgrounds
• graduates
• people with a disability.

To assist our people in reaching an appropriate balance between work and family we offer a range of programs and services to all employees. This includes focus groups and communication surveys encouraging the communication of ideas by employees to assist in the overall improvement of our people and IOOF.

Equipping our people with the tools, knowledge and skills to stay competitive is an easy investment we make in our future success. We promote career development and self-learning which helps to increase productivity and retain staff. All employees are encouraged to set personal development plans with their managers and to undertake training that is appropriate for their role and future career.

The efficient use of resources makes good business sense, which is why IOOF is committed to improving our environment. Some of the recent environmental initiatives undertaken include:

• continued focus on lowering energy and paper usage
• paper and comingled waste recycling
• installing water saving devices
• participation in Earth Hour

As one of the largest financial services companies in Australia, we have a range of career opportunities on offer. Our roles range from product, marketing, operations, finance, legal, HR advice, para-planning, investment management and administration support. And that is just a few of our departments.

We recruit a select number of graduates every year and provide them with added support through our Graduate program.
