Description


About the opportunity

Corporate Risk is a vast sector both in terms of the types of clients you might expect to work with, and the type pf insurance cover a client might require. Whether you’re helping Olympic athletes to preserve their performance or supporting the continued growth of renewable fuels, you’ll be making a difference in the world. Insurance is an industry continually responding to climate change, fluctuations in the global economy and ever evolving technological advances.

This opportunity presents both excellent scope for learning and for you to add real value to our business from the start of the programme onwards.

Your initial 6 weeks will be spent in tandem with our Summer Intern Cohort, gaining an immersion into Lockton and the insurance industry.

You will then spend the remainder of your time with us aligned to one of our specialist divisions. Within that division, you will gain exposure to a wide range of different roles and gain greater depth of understanding of clients, markets and how the division operates.

Throughout the programme you will benefit from:

  • Skills and knowledge sessions
  • On-the-Job Learning: Your placement will comprise ‘stretch tasks’, projects and involvement in client activities
  • Enterprise- wide project: A specific project for all of those in your cohort to collaborate on. This will be in conjunction with ‘Lockton Lab’ and/ or one of our specialist Executive Committees e.g. Producer (new business), Retail, Specialty, DEI
  • Continually building relationships with Lockton experts, clients and markets

Through your experience, you’ll get a real sense of life at Lockton and what a career in our business could look like for you.
