Our client is a group of talented and passionate people all around the world. Together, we have pushed the boundaries of insurance. We are united by a shared passion and no-limits mindset, and our strength lies in our ability to collaborate as a powerful international team comprised of 18,000 employees spanning over 100 countries.
People join for many different reasons, but they stay for the same one: our culture. It’s what sets us apart, and the reason our employees have been turning down headhunters for years. Whatever your priorities – work / life balance, career progression, sustainability, volunteering – you’ll find like-minded people driving change.
Are you finishing your formal education and now ready to kick-start your career in insurance? Look no further and join our new Marine Cargo & Logistics Apprenticeship scheme!

This includes a comprehensive induction schedule for the first few weeks and the opportunity to work on projects across the team for the duration of the programme.
Whether it’s providing insurance coverage for vessels supporting the oil & gas and offshore renewable energy industry, global shipments, or some the largest shipping fleets in the world, the Marine, Cargo & Logistics team are at the forefront of the industry for our ever-expanding portfolio of global clients.
