Steadfast Group

At Steadfast, our culture is grounded in the belief that we are better together. Across our network, our people bring diverse skills, experiences and perspectives that help us support thousands of businesses and communities across Australia, New Zealand, the Philippines, Singapore, the United States and the United Kingdom.

We aim to create an environment in which everyone is treated fairly and with respect, and everyone feels responsible for the reputation and performance of the business.

We are proud to support meaningful employment pathways, including long‑standing partnerships that create opportunities for people with intellectual disability.

We offer flexible, hybrid working arrangements to help you balance work and home life, an inclusive parental leave policy, wellbeing support through our Employee Assistance Program (EAP), and we celebrate days of recognition important to our employees, creating a workplace where people genuinely feel they can bring their whole selves to work. 

Belong Together – Our Diversity, Equity, Iinclusion and Belonging (DEIB) strategy 

Belong Together is our commitment to building a workplace where every person feels respected, supported and able to thrive. It is a structured, accountable and measurable framework that embeds inclusion into leadership, policies, systems and everyday behaviors.

Belong Together is built on three interconnected pillars: Advance, Respect and Thrive.

Together, these pillars form a cultural blueprint that strengthens psychological safety, reduces risk, enhances ESG performance and ensures inclusion is lived, not laminated.

Belong Together is championed by our Executive Leadership Team and embedded into leadership expectations, governance and reporting.

Advance

We have a focus on equity of opportunity, representation and leadership pathways aligned to Workplace Gender Equality Agency (WGEA) targets. We actively promote and participate in  key insurance industry diversity initiatives including:

• Women in Insurance

• Young Insurance Professionals

• Apropella

• Dive In Festival

• Champions of Change. 

Respect

We are committed to reconciliation, cultural safety and respectful partnership, all guided by our Reconciliation Action Plan and deepening our commitment to First Nations peoples.

Thrive

Our commitment to enable all our people to bring their full self to work and be supported through, mental, physical, social and financial wellbeing initiatives, and build social inclusion through celebrating days of significance meaningful to our employees.

Steadfast Graduate Program

Steadfast’s Graduate Program offers multiple rotations across our network and corporate teams, giving graduates exposure to the full insurance ecosystem. Graduates benefit from structured learning, mentoring, senior leaderengagement and hands-on experience.

A highlight of the program is the graduate project, where graduates present solutions to a real business challenge to the CEO and executive team, preparing them for a successful long-term career.  

Steadfast Foundation

Now in its fifteenth year, we created the Steadfast Foundation to facilitate grants and charitable contributions that support charities helping people to overcome adversity. Since its inception, the Steadfast Foundation has donated more than $9.4 million to registered charities.

The Steadfast Foundation proudly directs its donations toward causes that matter deeply to our people – our employees, the Steadfast broker network, our underwriting agencies, and the communities in which we live and work.

The initiatives we fund are diverse but united by a common purpose: improving lives. They include advancing medical research with the potential to benefit all Australians, helping people with terminal cancer fulfil a cherished dream, and providing vital assistance to farmers facing hardship due to droughts and natural disasters.

Environmental, Social and Governance

Our Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) philosophy outlines our commitments to managing ESG risks. We think about the long-term success of our business from the perspectives of our shareholders, our people, customer advocacy, the environment and contributing to our communities.

Our DEIB strategy, RAP, wellbeing initiatives, environmental commitments and governance frameworks all contribute to our broader ESG performance and reporting.
