Benefits of Joining Nova's Team
Our Culture
We work hard and have fun. We focus on deadlines and client service while also enjoying obscure celebrations, like National Pet Day. From March Meme Madness and “Unplugged” company-wide monthly meetings to gratitude campaigns and ice cream surprises, we show our associates appreciation every day. There’s plenty of opportunity to get involved and become empowered through our associate-led committees. Individually, the committees offer a cross-functional opportunity for associates to build relationships with each other and their offerings help make Nova a great place to work year after year. You could say we’re so friendly, it’s awkward.
Company-Wide Commitment to Our Values
Built on our core values, we have a company culture that values working together to deliver the best possible results. Associates are empowered to support collaboration and innovation to deliver on our Brand Promise. Our connected organization focuses on these priorities: expanding associate knowledge, creating internal efficiencies, optimizing health plan trends and increasing customer satisfaction.
