Allianz Partners Honored with Two International Stevie® Awards for Great Employers

RICHMOND, Va., Oct. 9, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Allianz Partners has been named the winner of two 2018 Stevie® Awards in the third annual Stevie Awards for Great Employers. Allianz Partners won the gold in its category for Top Employer - Insurance and received the overall Grand Stevie Award for the Highest-Rated Nomination of the Year.

The Stevie Awards for Great Employers recognize the world's best employers and the human resources professionals, teams, achievements and HR-related products and suppliers who help to create and drive great places to work. Nicknamed the Stevies for the Greek word meaning "crowned," the awards were presented to winners at a gala ceremony at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York on September 21.

Allianz Partners stood out as a top employer due in part to its high associate engagement-exceeding benchmarks, ranking high for diversity, inclusion, integrity, and community service, as well as customer centricity and leader/manager effectiveness.

New benefits offered within the last couple years include a $15 per hour minimum base entry-level pay, more flexible work schedules, parental leave benefits, career development support, and comprehensive wellness programs. In addition to offering all associates paid time off for volunteering in our local community, a flexible time-off program for exempt associates enables better work-life balance.

The judges' comments praised the company's prominent initiatives: "Allianz Partners shows a 360-approach to becoming an employer of choice. Inclusion, engagement and generous workforce programs—clearly an impressive employment package at all levels of the organization that support meaningful engagement and positive business outcomes."

"It's a great honor to be recognized by a prestigious organization like the Stevie® Awards as a top employer in our industry. When we show genuine commitment to our employees' wellbeing with generous benefits and a rewarding workplace, we enable our associates in Richmond and Petersburg to thrive and achieve success in their careers," said Denise Marshall, Chief Human Resources Officer, Allianz Partners.
