Hipoges: Increasing staff engagement through a plan to improve its financial health
Hipoges is one of Spain’s leading asset management firms, with a workforce of more than 1,000 employees who look after the asset management of thousands of clients. A company closely linked to finance, which was founded in 2008, decided to invest in Cobee’s benefit plans two years ago.
“The history of Hipoges is a story of great success. We have launched many initiatives to improve the engagement of our employees and one of them has been to focus on their financial health,” says Juan Neble, Hipoges’ Human Resources Director.
We needed a world-class provider to bring together all financial benefits
“We believed it was essential to have a flexible remuneration lever that would satisfy the financial health of all employees. And we needed a world-class provider that could bring all the financial benefits together,” Neble highlights as the main reason for choosing Cobee as the benefits platform.
Flexibility and savings, the main advantages
And the benefits have not only been for the company, which has managed to improve the commitment of its staff thanks to the benefits plan created by Cobee specifically for Hipoges, but also for the people who make up its human team, who have noticed a substantial change compared to other plans in the market:
For me the main advantage has been the flexibility that Cobee offers me. For example, with the childcare vouchers you can change the amount each month.
“For me the main advantage has been the flexibility that Cobee offers me. For example, with the childcare vouchers you can change the amount each month. Unlike other solutions, with a simple click you can say what you want to spend each month, or even if you don’t want to spend anything because you don’t have childcare”, says Chelo Iniesta, Senior HR Technician at Hipoges. “I can use the amount I want, when I want and I can accumulate it for the next month,” she adds.
And within the flexibility, the staff highlights the ease with which they can make use of their benefits thanks to the app. “Thanks to the app it is very easy to understand the savings I am making each month. Previously I had not had a similar benefit in another company, so it is very positive”, says Cristina García, Junior HR Technician at Hipoges.
The platform is very user-friendly, very straightforward, very intuitive. Also, all the benefits are in the same place so it’s very easy, both for us and for the employees.
Flexibility also reaches human resources departments, which with Cobee’s all-in-one platform are able to improve their efficiency. “The platform is very user-friendly, very straightforward, very intuitive. And all the benefits are in the same place, so it’s very easy, both for us and for the employees,” says Neble.
In addition, the head of human resources at Hipoges concludes that “the workforce values very positively the whole management of flexible remuneration and that has a very positive impact on everything”.
