Reconciliation Action Plan

We believe we all have a role to play in reconciliation. We're committed to creating an inclusive and diverse community and work environment in which everyone is treated fairly and with respect, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. In October 2020, we released our first Reflect Reconciliation Action Plan in consultation with Reconciliation Australia.

What diversity, equity and inclusion means to us

Kelly Grace (she/her)

People & Culture Manager

“Individuality includes experience, technical skills, soft skills, mindset, culture, gender, sexuality, language, religion, accessibility needs, carer responsibilities and so on. This is true also for our members and our community. So, diversity really is just the norm isn’t it?”

Andrew Mirams (he/him)

Head of Product & Insights - nib Travel

“It’s about creating an environment where people feel comfortable being their authentic self; it’s treating every person we work with at nib with mutual respect and dignity – and encouraging us all to share those values with our families, friends and communities.”
