Director, Security & Compliance

About Forma

The employee benefits market is broken. Companies invest millions annually in benefits that employees neither value nor use regularly. Forma, founded in 2017, set out to challenge this one-size-fits-all approach.

Forma's flexible benefits software enables companies to offer competitive packages while reducing costs and inefficiencies. It gives employees more choice and flexibility in spending their benefit allowances. The platform also saves HR professionals countless hours managing and supporting various solutions.

With Forma, companies can choose from a suite of products, including Lifestyle Spending Accounts, Health Spending Accounts, Health Reimbursement Arrangements, Flexible Spending Accounts, and more. These products allow companies to design and deliver customized benefits programs through a single platform. Employees can then spend account funds in three ways: The Forma Store, The Forma Visa Card, or claim reimbursement.

Forma has helped hundreds of renowned companies, including Stripe, Zoom, Lululemon, and Affirm, design inclusive, flexible benefits programs for nearly a million employees. We have a 98% customer retention rate, 75 NPS, and 98 CSAT ratings from members.

Forma is backed by Emergence Capital and Ribbit Capital. It has received numerous awards for its exponential growth, software innovation, and as a "Great Place to Work."
