Workplace Culture & Diversity
A vibrant community with care at its heart.
Our people aren’t just part of a team, they’re part of something bigger. We’re a close-knit group on a mission to reinvent what it means to age.
Elder is built around the idea that everyone should keep control, choice and independence throughout their lives. This doesn’t just apply to our customers, but to everyone who works with us too. We’re big believers in giving everyone the space, and the support they need to run with their own ideas, and ultimately shine.
It’s something that’s helped us to evolve a positive and welcoming too. Whether it’s through our weekly company catch-ups, team spotlights, or our social events, bringing people together allows us to celebrate different perspectives, experiences and talents – ensuring everyone feels like a true part of the team.
