Better Decisions Begin with You

At Aon, we shape decisions for the better to protect and enrich the lives of people around the world. As an organisation, we are united through trust as one inclusive, diverse team, and we are passionate about helping our colleagues and clients succeed.

Insurance Actuarial Consulting & Reinsurance Analytics Graduate Programme

Join Aon as an actuarial consulting insurance graduate and get the unique opportunity to be part of either our Strategy & Technology Group (STG) or our Reinsurance Analytics team.

Strategy & Technology Group (STG) – Insurance Actuarial Consulting graduate programme

You will be part of a multi‐disciplined, collaborative, and friendly actuarial consulting team, that supports a wide range of clients across the life & non‐life insurance value chain. Aon's global client base, combined with heightened geo‐political, climate and economic uncertainty, and a market focusing on more data‐driven insights, means there is significant growth potential in our consulting opportunities.

As an STG Actuarial Consulting graduate, you will be part of a growing team of 45+ actuarial consultants working on a variety of projects, learning from experienced professionals whilst starting your journey towards a professional qualification. You will be joining a team that values outside‐the‐box, innovative thinking and encourages a self‐starter approach from day one. The team is committed to a strong collaborative culture across all projects, with graduates working directly with senior colleagues from the beginning.

The team prides itself on outstanding technical ability, as well as impactful communication to all levels of stakeholders. As a graduate, you'll also get involved in technical and consulting training workshops. These will give you the skills you need to provide innovative solutions that meet our clients' needs, as well as building your confidence and experience through proactively managing client relationships.

Reinsurance Analytics Graduate Programme

Our Reinsurance Analytics team offers clients catastrophe management, actuarial, rating agency advisory and risk & capital strategy expertise. Whether working side‐by‐side with brokers on risk transfer products or engaging on broader analytic and modelling engagements, our 400+ specialists around the world consistently deliver innovation and thought leadership to clients.

As an Actuarial Graduate in Reinsurance Analytics, you will have responsibilities that include both the technical delivery of work and the communication of findings to brokers and clients. Some of your key responsibilities will involve:

• Reinsurance pricing and analysis
• Actuarial model building and testing
• Data preparation and presentation of results and advice to clients and brokers
• Actuarial research and development

Your Development

As an Aon Graduate, you will be enrolled onto our Launch Programme when you join. This development programme is built around 3 core elements:

• Business learning: On the job learning and experiences enabling you to develop your knowledge and understanding of your team and solution line.
• Centralised learning: Our UK graduates complete an Aon Induction, monthly webinars, business skills training and workshops; all designed to develop your knowledge of Aon, build your confidence and your network across our business.
• Professional Qualifications: To enable you to be as successful as possible, as part of your role, you will be expected to complete your study towards professional qualification as a Fellow of the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries (IFoA). To support you as you study for your exams, you'll receive paid study leave, plus an extensive range of study and tuition materials.

Your career beyond your Graduate programme

Once you've completed the formal graduate programme, you'll continue to receive lots of support at Aon. As well as continued technical and business skills training, you'll receive support for your actuarial qualifications. To aid your professional development you'll receive regular performance feedback, and work with your line manager towards promotions, enabling you to progress from an Associate to Consultant and beyond. Your role will evolve as you gain experience, taking on greater project and client management responsibilities as you develop.

Next Steps

We have opportunities available in the Strategy & Technology Group (STG) team and Reinsurance Analytics teams. Please review the information on each team and select your first‐choice preferred team should you be successful. Please note that, where possible, we will try to consider you for your first‐choice preference, however we cannot guarantee your first choice due to availability of roles. If your first choice is unavailable at the time of your Assessment Centre, we will also consider you for the other teams.

You will need to have achieved an A-grade or above in Maths A-level, A-grade in Maths Scottish higher or international equivalent of this.

Locations

Both roles will be based in our London office. We recognise the value for our Early Career colleagues of being in the office environment from the beginning of their programme. As a new graduate, you will spend the first 6 months based in the office to support your learning, development, and progression. This will enable you access to support from managers, collaborate with colleagues as well as grow your network across Aon. After completing this initial training period, you will then have the opportunity to work more flexibly, spending at least 3 to 4 days face to face in the Aon office or with clients.

Right to work

Our graduates are on permanent contracts from day one, we welcome applications from candidates who have their own right to work within the UK where you can maintain and demonstrate your right to work throughout the duration of your employment. This may include pre‐settled or settled status from the EU Settlement Scheme – or if you have applied and you are waiting for a decision.

Aon UK Graduate Recruitment: What to Expect

We know applying for your first graduate role can be exciting, and sometimes a little daunting. At Aon, we're committed to making our recruitment process as transparent and supportive as possible. Here's how our selection journey works, and what you can expect at each stage:

• Application Review: We process applications on a rolling basis, moving candidates forward as they complete each stage. Every application is carefully reviewed by our team (not by AI).

• Video Interview: Preparation matters, so you'll have up to 10 days (240 hours) from receiving your invitation to record and submit your video interview.
