We pride ourselves on our scale, reach, and entrepreneurial approach.

Complex risks require smarter solutions, which is why at WTW, our specialised approach, exceptional client service and broader perspective deliver smarter risk management.

The Role 

Our structured Summer Internship Programme serves as the cornerstone of our full-time CRB Programme as top performing interns will automatically be considered for the full-time Graduate Development Programme (GDP). The summer internship is designed for students who are one year away from graduation. It is an 8-week learning experience across July and August that provides undergraduates with the opportunity over the summer to gain hands-on experience working in the insurance industry and contributing to our business. The programme is comprised of induction, goal setting, training modules, group projects including a final presentation, business speaker series and a formal performance review process.

The programme provides the opportunity for graduates to work hands on with senior leadership with client facing exposures from accounts ranging in the Fortune 500 sector to smaller market local business areas. We serve a diverse range of clients sectors such as in Cyber, Financial Institutions, Marine and Construction. For a full list of industries our colleagues work with click here.
