Insurance Business recently released the Top Insurance Employers of 2023, insurance employers in Australia and New Zealand that were recognised for their commitment to creating an environment for their people to thrive and perform.

As part of the editorial process, Insurance Business’s researchers interviewed subject matter experts, including Andrew McKechnie and Meghan Donnithorne, for their independent analysis on the results of the Top Insurance Employers 2023 special report.

What makes companies the best employers?

In an interview with Insurance Business, Meghan Donnithorne, director of tech and transformation and government division at Robert Walters New South Wales (NSW), said top employers:

maintain high employee satisfaction by providing a good culture and keeping them engaged;
offer strong compensation and benefits;
have a flexible working environment;
provide training and career progression opportunities; and
maintain a diverse and inclusive environment.

Andrew McKechnie, head of workplace solutions for New Zealand at Mercer, added that the best employers:

present a relatable organisation;
establish trust and transparency, fostering feelings of collaboration; and
provide competitive remuneration, benefits, and employee value propositions.
