The opportunities
We have a range of exciting graduate programmes and, with leading broadcasters, confectioners and technology companies amoung our many clients, you're sure to play a part in something extraordinary. In addition, unlike many other companies, we'll offer you a job with us at the end of your programme.
The core streams which graduates can apply for are:
Insurance, reinsurance and risk management
Consulting
Actuarial Consulting
In these programmes we combine on-the-job experience with a series of core technical and consulting workshops and will assist your study towards a relevant professional qualification such as Diploma of Insurance Practice (DIP) and actuarial exams. We are also working with Imperial College to provide a leading-edge opportunities for achieving actuarial qualifications and, thanks to the support we offer, our graduates typically pass all actuarial exams in less than five years - an impressive 2 years ahead of the average.
The breadth of our organisation means that subject experts are available to help with specific exam topics, and the advice and guidance of a management mentor will help to broaden your knowledge and experience. By the end of the programme you will have made the transition from new graduate to an up-and-coming insurance, consulting or actuarial professional ready to take on a role of significant responsibility. With the help of regular reviews you will be able to identify your achievements and focus on your future development and career path.
