Maybe things have become a little stale in your current job. Maybe you’d rather work somewhere that doesn’t require you to wear a navy blue tie and hide in a grey cube all day. Or maybe you’re just not sure. All you know is you want to work somewhere ... different.
Well, we understand.
At Verafin, there are no cubicles or arbitrary dress codes. And while that may not be an actual photo of our office above, we do have red walls (and blue, and purple, and yellow, and...)
Sound like your kind of place? Find out why you should work at Verafin or learn more about who we are.
In short, because it’s fun, challenging, rewarding and different than anywhere else you’ve worked.
We believe when you put smart, dedicated people in a room together with no boundaries, the possibilities are endless. That’s how we create and support one of North America’s leading fraud detection and anti-money laundering software packages.
We are passionate people who don’t believe in ‘good enough.’ We aim for great with everything we do. And it’s this attitude that results in happy customers who rave about our people and our product.
We believe everyone should enjoy their work. We do. It isn’t just because we can write on the walls, grab a snack from the kitchen, or play video games in the lounge. (But it doesn't hurt.)
We work together. Within teams or across teams, knowledge zips across all areas of the business. Innovative ideas are noticed and rewarded, no matter where they come from.
"That sounds great," you say, "but who are you?"
We're a software company in St. John’s, Newfoundland. Our software helps financial institutions across North America deal with anti-money laundering and fraud detection.
Our mission is to help protect financial institutions against crime with innovative technology. We do this by having some of the most talented people in the country – people who have the knowledge and the personality.
We have also created a company culture that makes most other companies seem stale. You won’t find a cubicle here, just an expanse of open, colourful space.
Since the beginning, we have experienced outstanding growth and were recently rated one of the fastest growing companies in Atlantic Canada.
There's plenty more we could say about Verafin. But we will save some for when you come by to meet us.
