Your role

What Can You Look Forward To?

  • Your 27-month rotational Business Graduate will give you unrivalled exposure to different parts of the business, learning what Zurich does, and how it delivers for the customers.
  • You will build a strong understanding of the business and how the company delivers for the customers when they need us most and you will be supported by a large network of people across the breadth of the UK business throughout to help you succeed.
  • You can expect to get to grips with the complexity of claims, learn about underwriting, assess risks, deliver reports to stakeholders, drive operational excellence, and potentially manage a team.
  • You’ll have the opportunity to challenge yourself, develop a range of skills and networks, oversee projects that deliver value to the business and customers, and develop the commercial and technical know-how that will set you on a course to be a future leader.

About you

What You’ll Need:

  • Flexibility around the location as this is a rotational programme and you work across the UK offices and must be within a commutable distance from the office
  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills
  • The ability to build strong working relationships
  • Willingness and commitment to learning and development
  • Influencing & teamworking skills
  • Strong organizational skills
  • Drive and enthusiasm

Entry Requirements:

  • You must recently have achieved (within the last three years) or be on track to receive a minimum 2:1 degree from your bachelor's or equivalent degree.
  • At least 96 UCAS points from 3 A-Level subjects (or equivalent)
  • A*-C in English and Maths GCSE (or equivalent)
  • You must have an indefinite, full right to work and reside in the UK. Zurich cannot accept applications from those who require sponsorship to work in the UK. You must have resided in the UK for a minimum of three consecutive years to apply.

Compensation & benefits

As well as joining a company that is passionate about the people, sustainability, and the customers, Zurich also has a competitive rewards and lifestyle benefits package. You’ll receive:

  • £29,400 starting salary with 2 performance-related pay reviews a year
  • 25 days holiday plus an additional 3 volunteering days
  • You can request to swap UK bank holidays for days off that have cultural or religious significance to you
  • Private medical cover
  • 12% company pension contribution
  • Annual company bonus
  • Discounted gym membership
  • Discounted gadget insurance
  • Discounted technology offers

Training, development & rotations

You will build on your individual motivation and natural skills, learning lots of new ones along the way, with the chance to meet lots of new people and make great connections. Your programme experience will be unique as you’ll agree to your rotations with the Graduate Programme Lead, Managers and Business Representatives, based on your development areas, own preferences, and business needs.

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

Career progression

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.
