A career path infused with creativity and collaboration

For many people, agency work offers the thrill of new projects and creative freedom. In contrast, the corporate world often comes with stereotypes of rigid hierarchies and outdated ways of working.

While Zac was initially uncertain about his move into the corporate world, he quickly realised that working at Allianz was a very different experience.

A career path infused with creativity and collaboration

Zac's career began at a boutique marketing agency, where he spent over a decade honing his skills in the ever-changing digital design space. Starting as a graphic designer, he transitioned to digital design and user experience (UX), eventually leading the agency’s entire creative team.

As a parent of young children, Zac decided to seek the kind of career stability that isn't guaranteed in the sometimes-fickle world of agency life. As a global business embarking on a digital transformation, Allianz emerged as the ideal employer, offering a workplace that values stability, flexibility, and autonomy.

To his surprise, Zac's transition to corporate work opened doors to a more holistic approach to customer solutions.

“I now have the privilege of overseeing the entire customer journey, from inception to completion,” Zac shares. “This shift has enabled me to proactively identify areas for improvement, ensuring customer satisfaction and loyalty. In contrast to the rush to complete tasks in an agency, the focus at Allianz is on enhancing the customer experience through continuous iteration and optimisation.”

Abdul from Allianz SE

“There’s a refreshing absence of hierarchy and egos,” Zac explains. “Everyone is approachable with open dialogue and people genuinely want to help you. You’re hired as a subject matter expert, and you’re empowered to make recommendations based on your expertise. I thought I would be just a number at a large corporate, but it doesn’t feel like that, here at Allianz, at all.”

Shaping customer-centric digital solutions

For Zac, Allianz's commitment to customer-centric digital transformation is clear. “Usability testing and user research are integral to shaping our digital solutions,” he says. “By involving real people, these methods eliminate internal bias and preconceived notions. At the end of the day, our customers and partners deserve the very best service and experience- whether that’s in person, over the phone, or online.”

Zac and his team use methods like UI preference testing, benchmarking, and mapping customer journeys to meticulously test and enhance efficiencies, personalise experiences and identify pain points.

Allianz's focus on becoming a leading digital experience provider ensures that customers find their interactions easy and enjoyable. “Rigorous A/B testing, and research are the foundation for deploying effective digital solutions. Unlike the agency world, where gut feelings often guide decisions, we rely on data-driven strategies to refine and provide superior digital experiences.”

The freedom to grow your career your way

‘Design Your Own Career’ isn't just a tagline at Allianz; it is a reality. In addition to taking ownership of his own career goals, for Zac, this means giving his team the freedom to shape their own career paths, exploring all the possibilities and opportunities available to them- and at a global business such as Allianz, there are a lot of opportunities.

“I love exploring my team’s aspirations, supporting them to stay on-track to achieve their goals and making sure they enjoy their time at work,” he says. “I work hard to create a culture where we’re all productive, but have fun along the way, so everyone goes home feeling happy and fulfilled. It’s incredibly satisfying to see people achieving their goals and progressing in their careers."
