So, we focus on providing true flexibility in where and when you work to suit you, your team and your clients. People at every level of the firm and in every team benefit from our flexible ways of working.
Find out more about how two members of Ogier Global’s Fund Administration team have embraced this approach to work.
Craig Healey
Manager in Ogier Global’s Fund Administration team
I’ve been at Ogier for nearly two years and truly appreciate the work-life balance and flexibility that the firm offers. I like to strike a balance between dedicating myself to work while keeping time for my hobbies, whether that’s playing the guitar or my records at home, as I’m heavily into music, or putting myself through the mill watching the great Blackburn Rovers play football.
I prioritise fostering a positive team environment and strive to maintain strong rapport and camaraderie within our team. Our Fund Administration team works hard to meet client deadlines, but we also make sure to celebrate our success together.
Ogier’s flexible work policies empower people to thrive professionally while maintaining personal wellbeing. The firm embraces the idea that their people can be productive no matter when or where they perform their work. Rather than enforcing a rigid workplace environment or schedule, workplace flexibility at Ogier acknowledges individual needs and supports better work-life balance and employee wellbeing. Maintaining this balance is not only important for health and relationships, but for productivity and performance.
At Ogier, everyone can excel at work and prioritise their wellbeing and time with family.
Leira Anne Lopez
Senior Fund Accountant in Ogier Global’s Fund Administration team
When I came across the opportunity to work as a Senior Fund Accountant at Ogier’s Jersey office, I was an expat from the Philippines working in Malta. Once I joined the team, Ogier helped with my relocation to Jersey – they played a vital role during this process and made sure I had the right support at every step. The firm’s flexible working policies have helped me to maintain my work-life balance and find my footing both inside and outside the office as I settled in my new home on the island. Since my first introduction to their people first ethos, I have been continuously amazed at how Ogier takes care of its people, in all aspects of work and life.
As an expat, it can be difficult to live many miles from loved ones. I value the time that I’m able to spend with those back home, and Ogier have helped me build this into my year, and into my weekly schedule, so I remain connected to my family. I truly value feeling supported, and this motivates me to give my best at work.
Ogier is also dedicated to providing development opportunities, from studying to experiencing different areas of the business. On several occasions, I have been able to work not only in fund accounting but also in systems and administration functions. I really appreciate this opportunity as it provides valuable insights into how the entire Fund Administration team operates.
From my relocation to flexible working, Ogier has showcased what true support and work-life balance feels like.
