You’re also a confident, creative thinker with a knack for innovating. We know that you know every problem has a solution. Here, you can try new ideas, and lead the way in creating inspiring experiences for our clients and everyone around you. We don’t fit the corporate stereotype. If you want to work for a traditional, suit-and-tie corporate that just gives you a pay cheque at the end of the month, we might not be for you.

• Performance-related bonuses
• Pension, insurance and medical contribution
• Career-focused in-class and online training including unlimited access to LinkedIn Learning platform
• A day off on your birthday
• Fitness Reimbursement
• Employee Assistance Program

Where you’ll work

We follow a hybrid working model; we reckon it’s the best of both worlds. This model also feeds into our secret ingredients for innovation: diversity, flexibility, and close connection. Plus, you’ll be welcomed into a diverse and inclusive workforce with a lot of creative energy.

Ask our employees what their favourite thing is about working at IG, and you’ll hear an echo of ‘our culture’! That’s because you can come to work as your authentic self. The things that make you, you – like your ethnicity, sexual orientation, faith, age, gender identity/expression or physical capacity – can bring a fresh perspective or new skill to our business. That’s why we welcome people from various walks of life; and anyone who wants to help us realise our vision and strategy.

So, if you’re keen to connect with our values, and lead the charge on innovation, you know what to do.
