Aviva is nothing without our people. Living up to our purpose to be with you today for a better tomorrow applies to those we work with just as much as it does to our customers. We want Aviva to be a place where people can be themselves, and we want our workforce to reflect the customers and communities we serve. This means offering market-leading benefits and challenging ourselves to do more to build a workplace – and society – that works for all. It takes you. It takes Aviva.

As Ramadan comes to an end, we’d like to wish everyone celebrating Eid Mubarak! Our Muslim Network has been sharing their faith and culture with colleagues, helping us all to appreciate their experience of fasting during their #LifeAtAviva over the last 30 days. Mohammed Zuber, Claims Project Manager, reflected: “The last month this has been a very special time for me. I’ve slightly adjusted my normal routine for Ramadan - I tend to stay awake during the nights and sleep a few hours at a time, or take a power nap where possible. I’ve taken the last 10 days off to connect with family, meditate and appreciate all the blessings I am fortunate enough to have, whilst remembering the less privileged. Most importantly, I endeavour to come out as a better person at the end.”
