Rewards & recognition program
We are passionate about celebrating our achievements and recognising the dedication and exceptional contribution of our people. Our Rewards & Recognition program aims to recognise colleagues who demonstrate our values and excel in their work.
Social club
The Genea Social Club was established in 2006 and is a great forum to socialise, have fun and get to know colleagues outside of work in a relaxed, fun and stress-free environment.
Being a member provides staff with free or subsidised entry to regular social events and functions organised throughout the year such as harbour cruises, gold class movie nights, days at the races, comedy nights, musicals and much more.
Company Picnic Day
We truly understand the importance of family, after all we’re heavily involved in helping create them. Over the Christmas and New Year period, we give eligible employees an additional annual leave day so they can spend more time with family and friends.
Career development
Genea offers ongoing formal education programs and development opportunities along with paid study assistance for courses in related fields. Genea staff have the opportunity to grow and develop in the organisation. All vacant/new positions are advertised internally, providing employees with the opportunity for career development.

Staff engagement
Our employees’ thoughts and opinions about working at Genea are important to us. We conduct a staff engagement survey each year and pulse checks quarterly.
The information we collect is used to make improvements and foster conversations across departments.
Paid parental leave

Discounted IVF services
We support our people who are experiencing difficulty getting pregnant through subsidised access to our world leading science and treatment.
Flexible work arrangements
At Genea, we understand the importance of having a work/life balance and to live up to that belief, we encourage initiatives like working from home, compressed working weeks, job sharing, various leave entitlements and part time work.
