Our Mission

Brokers are in a unique position when it comes to interpreting and advising on claims and claim patterns relating to mental health within a company. As forward-thinking brokers, we are in a privileged position to direct our clients to the best resources possible for their particular need.

As a B-Corp certified employee benefits brokerage, our mission is to equip companies with the most comprehensive, evidence-based, and tech-forward mental health programs and solutions available.

Our Story

MB Pension & Benefits Group is bringing life back to the otherwise homogenized industry of employee benefits. That’s right, we’re making employee benefits great again. As an all-female owned and operated employee benefits brokerage with operations in Western and Atlantic Canada, we firmly believe in the ripple effect of supporting mental health in the workplace – and our brand is a living example of this.

Between our extensive and credible background in the field of psychology, combined with our success and expertise in the benefits space when it comes to mental health consulting and benefits, our expertise is unparalleled in the industry. As a progressive, purpose-driven, and socially focused firm, we were the first all-female owned and operated organization in Canada to obtain a B-Corp certification. During our second year of being B-Corp certified, we were awarded Best for the World in Social Governance.

Our social purpose is the driving force behind our business; we are constantly seeking out best-in-class mental health platforms and service providers within the overall ecosystem of health to bring about lasting change. By offering data-driven, custom-tailored mental health & wellness programs, we advocate for our clients by constantly striving for innovation, care, and efficacy.

A former elite-level athlete and two-time national champion in women’s rugby at St. Francis Xavier University, Beth can appreciate the importance of having a strong benefits plan.
After completing her first-class honours degree and having her undergraduate thesis on human motivation published in an academic journal and textbook, Beth went on to found MB Group with a vision of launching the employee benefits industry into a new realm of mental health.
As the CEO and Founder, Beth has led MB Group from a start-up brokerage to one of the fastest growing brokerages in the country – and the youngest. After being touted as one of BC’s Top 30 Under 30 Business Leaders in BC Business Magazine in 2020, Beth then led MB Group to their B Corp Certification, becoming Canada’s first all-female owned and operated insurance brokerages.
It didn’t take long before MB Group climbed their next rung in the corporate world. In 2021 and 2022, MB Group was recognized as having one of the highest overall scores on the Best for the World list for Corporate Governance.
Beth acts as the principle broker for MB Group, where she advises Canada’s top employers on how to tie in their group benefits with their corporate mental health strategy.

Renewal Analyst & Mental Health Claims Analyst
BA Psychology with 1st Class Honors, special concentration in Forensic Psychology, St. Francis Xavier University.
A graduate and former scholarship athlete in hockey at St. Francis Xavier University, Alley joined the MB team in 2019. After what was meant to be an internship with MB Group between her undergrad degree and graduate school, Alley decided to forgo several offers to pursue her PhD in clinical psychology and become a key part of a brokerage that was ready to lead an entire industry forward.
Her philosophy is simple: meaningful impact happens in small places. In order to bring about progress, both businesses and the insurance world require data and evidence-based recommendations for their mental health benefits.
Alley collects and interprets insurance claims data to create quarterly and annual reports and track findings, as well as improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the plans we offer. Her psychology-based analysis of mental health claims has provided us invaluable, groundbreaking insights into how we, and the insurance industry as a whole, can transform how we address mental health in the workplace.
She is passionate about using her skills to help people access better and more culturally sensitive support and loves working for a B Corp that continually breaks the status quo, from being all female-owned and operated, to having an average age of 27 at the time of their first B-Corp certification.
Alley currently lives in Calgary and has a passion for hockey and hitting the slopes, skiing all winter long.
