Simply put, we come to work because we want to make a difference in people’s lives. At Mercer, our purpose is to make a positive difference in people’s lives by helping advance their health, wealth and careers. We do this by living within our carefully structured Mercer house, where our daily values support our strategic imperatives, which in turn support our overarching mission and purpose.
Our four strategic imperative pillars support our mission and ultimately allow us to make a difference in people’s live. Our business and company culture are rooted in this sense of purpose, which dictates our values and allows us to do best by our people, clients and shareholders alike.
Every day, in our work with clients and our relationships with each other, we demonstrate our Mercer PRIDE values. These values form the foundation for the four strategic imperatives under which we run our business: invest in our people, broaden client relationships, improve customer experience and deliver profitable growth
