Life With Us

NORTHBRIDGE CARES ABOUT ME & I FEEL THAT I BELONG.

Work to live – not the
​​​​​​​other way around.
We care about balance and have options such as our 50/50 Work From Home program, flexible work arrangements, early departures for summer and long weekends, New Family Member Ramp-up, sabbaticals… and more!
Supporting you so
​​​​​​​you can live well.
We’re committed to your well-being and offer resources for four areas: Mental, Physical, Financial, and Social. We also offer comprehensive benefits with flexible coverage options so you can decide what suits your family.
Bring your whole
​​​​​​​self to work.
We value diverse opinions, experiences, and perspectives, and believe they are at the heart of our success. Be part of a team that embraces and celebrates your individuality. With us, you will feel like you belong.
Our leaders care
​​​​​​​about their people.
Our leaders are approachable and accessible. They empower their teams by removing barriers. Depending on the day, our senior leaders can be found engaged in discussion – or competing in a game of foosball!

I SEE MY MEANINGFUL IMPACT - I AM LEARNING & GROWING.

Be and bring your
​​​​​​​best self to work.
We have a high-performance work culture. This means we aim to set the bar higher – striving for service excellence, driving innovation, and creating winning outcomes that set you – and us – apart. 
Feel rewarded and challenged. 
We ensure you’re motivated to achieve your best and reach your full potential. Whether it is recognizing your milestones, providing bonuses, or achieving professional designations – we celebrate you.
Make your mark
​​​​​​​on our business.
We’re the 3rd largest commercial insurer yet maintain the approach and agility of a small company. We encourage tough questions and creative solutions, so you can drive change and really make a difference to how we work.
Create the career
​​​​​​​you dream of.
We believe in promoting talent from within; many of our positions are filled internally. We offer internal growth programs, such as rotations and mentoring. We also support external education and training opportunities.

​​​​​I'M PROUD OF OUR CULTURE & LIKE WHO I WORK WITH.

​​​​​​​BEING 100% CANADIAN & A FAIRFAX COMPANY IS EXCITING.
