About The Role

We’re looking for a Graphic & Multimedia Designer to join our growing team!

At Intact, our values guide everything that we do. We celebrate our differences and appreciate our similarities - that’s why we are committed to building an inclusive and inspiring environment for all employees.

We’re here to help people, businesses and society prosper in good times and be resilient in bad times.

We believe that insurance is not about things, it’s about people.

Our success story is written by our passion for living our values and creating a better tomorrow. We’re writing the future of insurance - are you ready to be a part of our story?

This is your opportunity.
