This is a good place to be

Our goal is to attract and keep the best people in the industry by empowering our employees to do the right thing for one another and for our Clients. We provide an environment where individual contribution is rewarded and teamwork is encouraged, where objectives are clearly defined and where our core values are always front and centre.

Diversity, equity and inclusion 

At Sun Life, we’re committed to creating an inclusive and respectful environment, where all of our people can contribute to their full potential. A diverse workforce with wide perspectives and creative ideas benefits our Clients, our colleagues and the communities where we operate. Our success depends on it.

We take pride in our inclusive environment that not only supports our Employees in all their diversity but also reflects our Clients and communities, allowing us to better serve their unique cultures and needs.

Committing to diversity, equity and inclusion is the responsible thing to do, but it’s much more than that – it helps our Clients, colleagues and communities shine, it leads to innovation, collaboration and high performance, and it will continue to be a longstanding value at Sun Life.

Corporate social responsibility

Sun Life is committed to giving back to the local community and has made huge efforts in raising awareness and funds for local charities. 

Sun Life employees in Ireland have raised over €620,000 for community groups and charities in the southeast since we began fundraising events and establishing charitable partnerships 20 years ago. These events have taken many forms including galas, comedy nights, sponsored walks and runs, table quizzes and much more. Every year, we ask employees how they want to support local groups and charities. 

In the last year, employees showed their continued generosity by raising over €50,000 for them and for many other charities.

Waterford is the capital of the sunny South East

Why Waterford? A natural playground for golf, equestrian, walking, angling, water sports and cycling enthusiasts, Waterford has so much to offer. The county offers a dazzling coastline, the Waterford Greenway, beautiful river valleys and two dramatic ranges of very accessible mountains. Our recently established Greenway provides the perfect opportunity to explore our beautiful coastline and countryside. If work/life balance and the cost of living are the rationale for moving, then Waterford should be top of your list. The cost of living in Waterford is significantly lower than in Dublin.
