Employee Benefits & Programs
Urban Edge provides benefits that support our employees' personal and professional development, health, well-being, and work-life balance. We review our benefit plans annually to be certain they are not only competitive but also customized to meet the needs of our employees.
Mental Health
The emotional well-being of our employees affects morale and productivity within the workplace. We are focused on fostering an environment where everyone feels valued and supported by mental health programs and resources and mental issues are addressed at all levels of employment. We also ensure that health plans offered to all employees include adequate mental health coverage.
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
Diversity, equity, and inclusion (DE&I) has always been an integral part of the Urban Edge culture. By signing the CEO Diversity and Inclusion Action Pledge in 2021, we committed to fostering a more diverse and inclusive environment. This pledge is championed by our DE&I committee, which is made up of employees who are passionate and dedicated to educating the company about DE&I through educational seminars, curated events, and open discussions.
Health and Wellness
Health and wellness programs for our employees play a critical role in improving their well-being and productivity. A robust calendar of events, webinars, and learning programs help our team members lead healthier lifestyles, reduce stress, prevent illnesses, and manage existing health conditions.
Education
Urban Edge provides training and professional development programs that keep our employees up to date with the latest industry trends, improve their use of company tools, and expand their skills in new areas to promote personal growth.
Employee Engagement Events
Urban Edge hosts events on a regular basis to support wellness and philanthropic efforts, celebrate holidays, and recognize employee and company successes. Events have become a signature of the Urban Edge culture, boosting morale and energizing teams.
Philanthropy
We are committed to improving the human experience across our portfolio. We realize that the communities we serve are critical to the ongoing operations and overall success of our properties. A key factor in our approach is aligning our values with our external actions through philanthropy. When we empower our people to help others, great things happen.
Why Urban Edge?
My professional goals align with UE’s mission, to improve shopping centers in urban communities. The Development team takes a thoughtful approach to our projects, as we strive to create stakeholder value. Helping to deliver this value keeps me constantly motivated.
The teamwork and camaraderie across departments is unlike anywhere else I’ve worked. If someone doesn’t know the answer, they will help you find someone who does, which is something I really appreciate and have made part of my personal work ethic. If there is someone new to the company that is seeking help from me, I will try to find them an answer even if it is not my area of responsibility, since I had multiple people do that for me when I first started.
Coming from Public Accounting and traveling to multiple clients with different teams over the years, I was seeking more stability and a company that embraced a “family” culture while also providing the opportunity to challenge myself and continue to grow professionally. Once I interviewed, I knew Urban Edge was that place, and 4+ years later it still is.
My favorite thing about the culture at UE is the collaboration between different departments. Not a single deal gets done from point A to Z without the help and communication of Legal, Property Management, Construction and Lease Administration.
Urban Edge has a great growth mindset and is always looking to build community both internally and externally. Whether it’s expanding professional training, wellness, and DEI programs for the team; growing the business; improving our properties; or participating in volunteer efforts, collaboration and evolution are always in mind.

The long-term value of these efforts will reduce risk, drive profitability, and create a sustainable business model for the future.
