At ARAG, we all want to spend our days in a great workplace.

 
 

Our Culture

At ARAG, we provide a fast-paced but down-to-earth environment that provides opportunities for our people to grow and develop.

We focus on performance and recognise that people are at the heart of our success, that’s why you can be sure that working at ARAG means you’ll be empowered to share your ideas and make a real difference to what we do.

We take our work seriously, but try not to take ourselves too seriously, our working environment is relaxed, friendly and collaborative!

 
 

Learning and Development

We believe in the value of training and development for our people, as well as supporting their personal growth. Accessible learning and development are fundamental to this.

Whatever your role or level of experience, everyone benefits from a learning and development framework designed to meet your needs, realise your potential and reach your goals.

 

Diversity and Inclusion

ARAG is an equal opportunities employer.

We are only interested and focused on your talent and your potential, making sure we can provide an environment where we can support you to develop and grow.

We know that simply having a diverse workforce is not enough and we want to create an inclusive environment where everyone can contribute their best work and reach their full potential.

“We know that simply having a diverse workforce is not enough. We want to create an inclusive environment where everyone can contribute their best work and reach their full potential. We want to celebrate the fact that everyone is different yet valued and to make sure that every employee is treated with dignity and respect.

We have an inclusion taskforce sponsored and attended by our CEO composed of members of our various diversity networks. The group meet monthly to discuss challenges and ideas from the networks in order to ensure that we make ARAG an inclusive place to work.

Each network has its own EMC (Exec Management Committee) sponsor who works as part of the network to support and encourage their objectives. The individual networks have their own objectives and calendar of activity to engage employees across the company.”

 

Our ARAG values

We don’t just talk about our values, they are fundamental to everything that we do – our values make us who we are.

Our people demonstrate our values on a daily basis because they are important to them, as well as being right for our customers, our colleagues, our shareholders and ultimately our business.

We have a recognition scheme where colleagues can celebrate each other demonstrating our values, and we understand that it’s not just what we do that will make us successful; it’s how we do it.

 
 

Corporate social responsibility

At ARAG, we are committed to doing the right thing for our customers, employees, community and environment. We constantly strive to develop and improve our CSR programme, and pride ourselves on being a responsible business.

International Day Celebrations

We’re a diverse team that typically includes people of at least a dozen different nationalities,

Hear from our people

 

There are real opportunities for internal progression & movement, people are friendly and helpful...you are given opportunities, which is challenging but a great learning curve. Life at DAS can be fast paced but it is never overwhelming because of a strong support culture.
