Entering my sixth year with Optimum it feel as though I have found my “forever home.” The organization provides a welcoming environment for employees to shine. Past experience is appreciated and celebrated, and achievements are acknowledged and rewarded. We work in an environment that both encourages and facilitates growth. Thanks to the hybrid work model, employees can balance their work and home lives, which proves the understanding of the organization that great results come from employees who can benefit from a flexible work environment.

Our Commercial Lines team is proud to have transitioned to a paperless environment in 2019. This monumental accomplishment is an excellent example of how various Optimum departments can develop creative solutions and achieve milestone results. Being paperless increases workflow efficiencies, enhances security of file documentation, reduces business costs and promotes environmental conscientiousness.

After occupying roles as an actuary and then as a business development consultant, I wished to enhance my professional growth within the Optimum organization. The management team fully supported my return to school, allowing me to obtain my MBA which reinforced the skills that are now very useful in my position as Assistant Vice President. My own manager guides and encourages me on a daily basis in my career development and provides me with the tools I need to succeed.

As a leader at Optimum, I have been thoroughly impressed by the level of interaction with the leadership teams. Members from several different departments have gone out of their way to contact me with warm welcomes. They have provided valuable guidance and support through the process of understanding and accessing the various resources required to lead my team. It has truly been a wonderful initiation to the Optimum family.
