Your future starts here.
Whether you're a school or college leaver or studying at university, we can help you find the right opportunity for you.
We’ve been running graduate programmes since 2006, so we have plenty of experience in training and developing people into successful and long-term colleagues.
We run two main programmes; our Emerging Talent Programme (open to those with and without degrees) and our Data/Analytics Programme (open to those with STEM degrees). We also have many direct entry roles for graduates in a STEM discipline, who prefer to go straight into a data-oriented role, rather than going on a placement programme. Keep an eye out for when applications open!
Our Emerging Talent Programme is open to people from all backgrounds, whether you have a degree or not, as well as internal colleagues looking for a new challenge. Skills and experience in data analysis, project work and/or research are particularly desirable for all applicants. This is a two-year scheme encompassing six-month placements across a choice of business areas. This programme is perfect for those of you who aren't yet sure of what kind of career you want to go into.
The Data/Analytics Graduate Programme is tailored for students of STEM subjects, in particular Mathematics, Physics, Economics and Engineering. This is a two-year scheme with eight-month placements in analytical areas of the business where you'll be using your strong analysis and data skills. This programme is perfect for those who want to apply your data skills, but aren't yet sure in what sort of role this might be. Read Gethin's career path from graduate to Senior Data Analyst.
Our aim is to help pave the way for you to have a successful, rewarding and exciting career with us.
We want to give you the flexibility to grow & progress in your own way. So, whether that's through our Emerging Talent Programme, or direct entry graduate jobs, you'll develop countless skills as you work alongside colleagues at all levels, and potentially across all of our entities.
No insurance knowledge? No problem!
We know that training and development are hugely important to anyone starting a new career or first job, so we invest heavily in you to make sure you get everything you want out of it. We understand that most people come to us with no prior knowledge of the insurance industry - that's not a problem! We'll help to get you up to speed with Admiral and the world of financial services.
