Job Details

2025 Employee Experience Internship Consulting Programme

The greatest asset of most organisations is their people. In an era of rapidly developing technology, greater workforce mobility and increasing customer demands, having a cohesive human capital strategy is crucial for business success.

As an Employee Experience business, we make a difference to the lives of millions of employees around the world. Working with our colleagues across WTW’s Health, Wealth and Careers businesses we help clients deliver strong business results by ensuring that they have the right people in the right places, doing the right things, at the right cost and living the right experience. Through a combination of advice, data and software, we deliver solutions that help organisations improve their business performance through their people.

We know that high-performing institutions cultivate and grow talent, carefully balancing costs and rewards. From employee engagement to change management, we take a rounded perspective, based on leading-edge thinking, data, analytics, and software, unearthing new ways to attract, engage and retain talent – and shape the Employee Experience (EX).

Fundamentally, the workforce of today, and the future, is looking (i) to be inspired by a strong sense of purpose in an inclusive environment (ii) to be doing great work in a thriving organisation, (iii) to have a connection with great people and great leaders, and (iv) to be rewarded and to achieve their potential. We work with our clients to make that experience a reality.

Our human capital clients are varied – we advise organisations across all industries, from financial services to retail, telecommunications, and energy. In the UK, we advise many of the world’s leading and largest companies and often interact with our offices around the world to provide a truly global service offering. We provide invaluable advice to companies at some of the most exciting and critical moments in their lifecycle, at times when employee engagement and retention is crucial – from mergers and acquisitions to listing on the stock market.

As an intern in our Talent line of business, you will have the opportunity to work on all aspects of the employee experience. Our consultants provide expertise to clients in change management, organisational effectiveness, and communication to drive employee engagement and help align behaviour with business results. They also use marketing techniques to support long-lasting behaviour change and transformation. Our teams work with clients to ensure that the organisation has a robust pipeline of future leaders and people with critical skills and experience to drive business success. We design and implement programmes like competency models to ensure people have the right skills for their roles, as well as career development programmes, performance management processes and workforce analytics and planning.

At WTW, we believe difference makes us stronger. We want our workforce to reflect the different and varied markets we operate in and to build a culture of inclusivity that makes colleagues feel welcome, valued and empowered to bring their whole selves to work every day. We are an equal opportunity employer committed to fostering an inclusive work environment throughout our organisation. We embrace all types of diversity.

Qualifications

The Role

Our 8-week Intern Programme is designed for penultimate year students. You will need to be available to undertake this between Monday 30th June 2025 and Friday 22nd August 2025

An Internship at WTW will give you valuable real-world experience while you are still a student. It will enable you to apply your education in an environment that is both intellectually challenging and rewarding. At the end of your time with us, you will have a greater understanding of what we do and how closely our career offerings match your career ambitions.

You will be treated in the same way as our new graduates, receiving the same quality and quantity of work. It is the perfect opportunity to understand what you could expect if you joined our graduate programme the following year.

You will work as part of a team on a wide variety of complex projects. You will serve as a key resource for the consultant in charge of each of your engagements by performing many intricate aspects of the client work. As you grow and gain more expertise, you will become a key contact for the client. You will work alongside some of the industry’s top consultants on cross-industry client projects, including many household names: FTSE 100 and 250 clients, privately held companies and public service organisations.

You will have immediate exposure to real client assignments which will draw on your imagination and creativity, as well as your ability to analyse data, draw conclusions and present results. These experiences will help build your technical knowledge and overall industry expertise while you benefit from more structured learning interventions.

Qualifications and Training

We have a focussed 12-month training programme for graduates joining EX, which is called FAST START. FAST START is designed to give our graduates an insight into our business, and help them develop the consulting, practical and technical skills they need to succeed at WTW. While you are on your internship, you will be invited to attend any relevant sessions.

We continue to invest in our people, and you will have regular opportunities for training throughout your career with us – both on the job and through more formal classroom sessions. Consultants are not required to have a particular qualification; therefore, the wide variety of external qualifications we do support are determined by the needs of the business and the individual’s interests.
