Dominique Maria Stout, Personal Injury Claims Paralegal
When I joined NFU Mutual in 2019, I was impressed that they didn’t look for grades or accolades, but focused on my personality and qualities and provided a career path for me. Everybody is supported by the company in one way or another and that shows in their attitude.
They’re more than willing to assist with issues or queries. It doesn’t matter what role you have, everybody’s focused on making our offices a great place to work and ensuring that we’re all able to do our best. The atmosphere’s so inclusive and focused on your personal growth that I know I’ll go far here if I have the right attitude.
Ginny Whiston, Commercial Underwriter
I began working for NFU Mutual after gaining a Bioveterinary Science degree in 2017. The company takes a real interest in employees’ job satisfaction and my managers have worked hard to understand the areas I’m interested in. I’ve been able to work more with the farming sector and put some of my degree knowledge into use.
Then, in 2019, they provided training and development support to enable me to work towards an underwriting apprenticeship. My colleagues have always been supportive and more than happy to discuss and share their knowledge and experience with me. This support and guidance, combined with the development opportunities I’ve had make it a great place to work for me.
