We’ve been a leading health services partner for individuals, employers and governments across Canada for 80 years and a premier all-in-one carrier that provides health, dental, travel, life and disability benefits to individuals and organizations.

We've been recognized as one of Canada's Most Admired Corporate Cultures, one of Canada's Top 100 Employers, and an Imagine Caring Company.

More than simply a poster on the wall, our mission of improving the wellbeing of Canadians represents the purpose of our organization ― and we align that with our culture.

 

What we give back

Programs to support causes that are close to our employees' hearts, matching the volunteer hours and donations they contribute

An annual United Way workplace campaign led by employees in each of our locations

The Medavie Foundation, which invests in community initiatives and organizations that improve the wellbeing of Canadians, focuses on some of the most pressing mental and physical health challenges facing Canadians.

We will accommodate people with disabilities during the recruitment, selection and hiring processes.

This includes competitive compensation that will reflect your experience and expertise and annual performance-based incentives, a 100% employer-matched defined contribution pension plan, an employee RRSP, one-on-one financial counselling, vacation and personal days to help you rest, refuel and balance your life.

Career Growth: Internal talent mobility and growth are an integral part of our success. Employees are empowered to own their career development and have rewarding experiences in a variety of work areas. Supportive leadership will encourage and coach you to maximize your potential so you can access multiple learning pathways to develop. Our leadership development program and other programs, such as mentoring, performance-based management and education assistance, are offered to provide employees with an environment of lifelong learning.
