At Centene, we are committed to recruiting the most outstanding talent to advance our mission. To accomplish this, we partner with a number of organizations that bring unique expertise and networks that accelerate our growth through exposure to talent from all backgrounds. Centene’s Talent Attraction team continues to advance its efforts to deliver a more human-centric and personalized approach to attracting and cultivating the best talent.

Centene welcomes all interested employees to participate in a range of career development collaborations with external partners such as Harvard University, McKinsey Connected Leaders Academy and The Fellows Experience. Graduates from these programs bring new connections and skill sets back to Centene, furthering their professional journey and enhancing Centene’s impact in the marketplace. Internal development programs build on the development and enrichment gained at these external programs. These programs focus on areas such as sponsorship, leadership, and management skill training and mentorship. 

By working together as One CenTeam, we fuel innovation and enhance performance for everyone — our members, employees and communities alike.

Our continued growth and success is best served by an employee culture that fosters collaboration, inclusion and innovation. We have identified the five core values inherent to the culture we are building — accountability, courage, curiosity, trust and service. To further embed these values and behaviors into our day-to-day business, we have a culture ambassador network made up of employees from across the company. These ambassadors share best practices on fostering our ideal culture with teams across the enterprise. We also conduct culture surveys, which help us measure progress toward our culture goals and identify challenges and opportunities for growth.

We are committed to the physical, mental, emotional and financial health of our employees. To aid employees through life events, Centene offers employees a variety of assistance, reimbursement and discount programs, as well as a comprehensive benefits package.

Our extensive Total Rewards package provides choices to fit each individual’s needs. In the same spirit as how we serve our members, we provide benefits that support the whole health of our employees. Centene offers progressive and continuously evolving support systems for all team members. Our competitive benefit offerings are augmented by numerous programs available at no cost to team members. 

Centene also provides strong benefits and support systems for families and caregivers, including parental leave (up to 14 weeks for parents who have given birth) and caregiver leave (up to six weeks). 

Additionally, we offer a 401(k) retirement plan to help employees prepare for their future. The plan includes a company match and a Roth option.
