About the Role
With 49,000 colleagues in over 140 countries, WTW helps organisations make forward-thinking choices about their people, investments, and risks. Joining our Insurance Consulting and Technology (ICT) team, you’ll be part of our impact from the start. Our ICT team uniquely combines deep insurance consulting expertise with innovative technology, working across all major actuarial pillars within Property and Casualty (P&C) - reserving, capital, and pricing - as well as broader areas such as data science, process transformation, risk and regulatory, climate, exposure management, underwriting, and claims analytics. This involves client projects, research, and product development.

During this eight-week internship, you will gain invaluable real-world experience at the heart of our ICT business, focusing on data-hungry areas such as pricing, claims, and operational processes. You will use data science techniques to analyse data and produce insightful results, present your analysis internally and to clients, collaborate with colleagues in the UK and globally, and build your core technical skills through hands-on experience and team support.

You will deliver data science projects involving the development, assessment, and deployment of machine learning models and writing high-quality code. You will learn and apply open-source tools and technology alongside WTW’s proprietary insurance technology solutions widely used in the insurance market. The programme includes structured early-career training and ongoing learning from subject matter experts.

This internship is an excellent opportunity to understand what to expect if you join our graduate programme the following year. Many interns return as permanent team members after graduation.

WTW is committed to fostering an inclusive work environment and embraces all types of diversity, ensuring colleagues feel welcome, valued, and empowered to bring their whole selves to work every day.
