Clarina Talbot | Senior Risk & Compliance Manager, Life & Investments
As a member of the Challenger Risk & Compliance team for the last 3 years, I have found a team and workplace that really resonates with my personal and professional values.
The support that I have received from my Manager and colleagues has been much appreciated - whether it's allowing me time and flexibility to balance my personal and family commitments, to giving me opportunities such as Lead@Challenger, being involved in social events and groups like Together@Challenger - I have definitely felt like a respected and valuable part of the Challenger community.
As part of my role, I have been lucky enough to be involved on a variety of projects and transactions, working alongside some brilliant people. The diversity of thought, camaraderie and collaboration has really broadened my horizons and I continue to expand my learning, even though I have been in the industry for a long time!
Courtney Howell | Marketing Associate, Brand and Digital
I joined Challenger in 2023 as a Marketing Graduate. I started the 12-month graduate program where I rotated across 3 different marketing teams within Challenger Group. I was able to gain invaluable skills in a wide range of strategies owing to having the opportunity to obtain practical experience in different aspects of marketing. Following the end of the 12-month program, I was offered a permanent position as a Marketing Associate within the Brand and Digital team. I am currently responsible for supporting marketing and sponsorship engagement campaigns, launching the Challenger Life Instagram account, and the uplift of the current Challenger public website.
But there's much more to my life at Challenger than just creatives and campaign results. I'm glad to be a part of Challenger's culture; from our winning social netball team to company-wide events like Imaginate and Connect-a-thon, everything is enjoyable and constantly encouraged.
