About The Position
WTW’s Summer Internship Program serves as the primary pipeline into our full-time Graduate Development Program (GDP) and is designed for university-level students primarily one year away from achieving their bachelor’s degree. The Summer Internship Program is an 8-week learning experience designed for students to gain an understanding of the ever-evolving risk landscape. The internship provides undergraduate students with the opportunity to gain hands-on experience working with world-class clients and colleagues in the insurance industry. The program provides the opportunity for interns to work alongside senior leadership and add value to client-facing exposures from accounts in the Fortune 500 sector to small local business areas. In addition to core program components, interns are aligned to a specialized business area that will begin to build a technical foundation of knowledge and provide exposure to our clients through meaningful work assignments and projects. The internship program aims to create a collaborative community that contributes to our business through various projects, speaker series, structured training, case studies, networking events, and more. The program is comprised of a structured orientation, goal setting, mentorship, I&D initiatives, group presentations, and a formal performance review process. Colleagues working in Risk & Analytics’ Enterprise Risk Consulting (ERC) team provide our clients with a smarter way to analyze risk, using quantification, structured approaches, risk analytics tools and subject matter expertise to improve client outcomes. With our expertise and tailored solutions, we improve complex enterprise risk management by identifying, quantifying and mitigating unpredictable, interconnected risks. We currently work with some of the world’s largest and complex organizations to assess and manage their strategic risks. We also work with smaller organizations early in their ERM journeys. We work across many industries including Food & Beverage, Professional Services, Transportation / Logistics, Energy, Construction, Manufacturing and others. Work within ERC is predominantly project-based, and you will often be involved in multiple projects simultaneously. Our work is often collaborative, providing exposure to a range of teams within the division.
