Our values

We live our culture through our shared values, helping us get the best results for our members and each other.

We are member obsessed

We are obsessed with creating the best member experience or outcome by constantly anticipating members' needs, finding ways to add value and putting them at the heart of every decision. We never walk past a substandard experience for our members.

We do the right thing

In every decision we make and every action we take, integrity is key. We use good judgement to ensure everything we do, as individuals and as a team, is safe, builds trust and earns respect, so we can be proud at the end of the day.

We deliver together

We follow through on our commitments to deliver results and add value, seeking progress, not perfection. We're at our best when we are truly accountable and work together, using our diverse experiences to win. We get a kick out of celebrating our successes together.

We courageously challenge

We are brave and have challenging conversations to get the best outcomes. We are eager to grow, so we give and receive feedback generously. We find new and better ways to learn, to be curious, to adapt and to innovate.
