Who is Dis-Chem Life?
We get asked that a lot. The real question is, Who are we becoming?
We could tell you we were once a bold start-up called OneSpark.
That in 2020, we reimagined life insurance from the ground up with AI-driven underwriting, world-first product innovation, and a mission to make protection accessible for every South African.
We could tell you we are backed by global giants like Gen Re, and Guardrisk.
That we won awards for being one of the most innovative life insurers.
That our founders, Greg and Josh, didn’t just build a product they built a movement.
We could tell you that in 2024, we partnered with one of the most trusted names in retail healthcare, Dis-Chem and by 2025, became Dis-Chem Life, merging cutting-edge insurtech with a national footprint of over 295 pharmacies and 400 clinics.
But the real story? It’s who we are now.
We’re a company that moves fast, builds smart, and leads with purpose.
We create with curiosity, test with intensity, and act with heart. We are advisors, technologists, designers, and builders, working together to make life, disability, and funeral cover simpler, smarter, and available to the people who need it most.
Our culture is electric. Our ambition is unmatched. And our mission is personal, to protect the lives of South Africans in ways the industry never has.
We are not just offering jobs we are offering a chance to shape the future of insurance.
One product. One client. One breakthrough at a time.
We are Dis-Chem Life.
