Insurance is so much more than you think!

Are you looking for a career that will excite, challenge and inspire you after you've finished university? If so, a Zurich Insurance graduate scheme could be just what you're looking for. It's a great way to get real-life experience of working in insurance and discover what you enjoy. You'll get plenty of opportunities and support to shape your career and make a difference to our customers at a time when they need us the most.

Each Zurich graduate scheme is a permanent role and is just the start of your career with us. We'll continue to cheer you on every step of the way once you’ve finished and will remain committed to helping you grow. Working in insurance is so varied - you’ll find many different opportunities to explore.

Get excited! Our 27-month rotational Business Management Graduate programme will give you unrivalled exposure to different parts of the business, learning what we do, and how we deliver for our customers. You will build on your individual motivation and natural skills, learning lots of new ones along the way, with the chance to meet new people and make great connections.

You will build a strong understanding of our business and how we deliver for our customers when they need us most, and you will be supported by a large network of people across the breadth of the UK business to help you succeed throughout the programme.

You can expect to get to grips with the complexity of claims, learn about underwriting, assessing risks, delivering reports to stakeholders, driving operational excellence, and potentially managing a team.

You’ll have the opportunity to challenge yourself, develop a range of skills and networks, overseeing projects that deliver value to our business and customers, and developing the commercial and technical know-how that will set you on a course to be a future leader.

You will need to have the drive and enthusiasm to develop an understanding of our business.

Fantastic team working, communication, organisational and influencing skills are key, as is the desire to seize the initiative, adopt a continuous improvement mindset and embrace new opportunities. Be prepared to step outside your comfort zone to deliver for our customers and colleagues.

As part of the graduate programme, you will experience an in-depth learning & development programme that will support you throughout and into your future career.

You will also complete a Level 6 Senior Insurance Professional Apprenticeship (equivalent to a bachelor's degree) which includes completing your Chartered Insurance Institute ACII qualification.

As this is a rotational programme, you are encouraged and will be expected to move locations to carry out your role/rotation responsibilities. Whilst we operate a hybrid working policy, office attendance expectations will be agreed with your line manager at the start of each rotation and must be within a commutable distance of the office. Financial relocation support is provided for each relocation move.

As well as joining a company that is passionate about our people, sustainability and our customers, we also have a competitive rewards and lifestyle benefits package.

You’ll receive:

• £30,600 starting salary with 2 performance related pay reviews a year
