"Joining Opia has been the best experience! The training I received was friendly, interactive and very informative, making time fly by instead of dragging on. Working from home has many great benefits but its also been great for Opia to arrange team days and getting the chance to meet my team in person. It’s a busy environment, so there’s always something to do but I also feel very welcomed and a part of the team even as a remote employee! Opia is incredibly diverse and everyone supports each other, which is the best part about it. The managers and supervisors are approachable, flexible and always explain things clearly."

"I really enjoy working at Opia due to the flexibility and hybrid working arrangements, which enable me to have a much better work -life balance. I love the flexibility of coming into the office to meet and work with my co-workers, but also being able to work from home whenever I want to. As a parent, juggling fulltime work and childcare is not always easy, especially when you must be in the office a certain number of days a week, which is the norm in many other companies. At Opia I am empowered to manage my workload autonomously and have the option to work from abroad for a limited time. This is a great level of flexibility for someone like me who has family abroad, a benefit that enables me to spend more time with my extended family and friends."

"I originally joined Opia in a temporary capacity with no intention of staying longer than a few weeks, but soon discovered there were opportunities to explore. The first 8 months I spent within the Customer Services department, before being offered the opportunity to move into the Project Management team in a new entry level role. As I had no previous PM experience, Opia provided hands on support and took a learning-on-the-job approach which was practical and well suited to the nature of the role. Since joining the department my development has always been monitored and I have now been in the PM team for over 3 years. I have progressed to a more senior level position and have recently completed an Agile Project Management qualification. From my experience, there is genuine support available to develop when opportunities arise."
