Meet several Howden Re interns and learn what they found surprising about the insurance industry.

In your penultimate year of uni? Want the insurance inside track? Look no further.

You won’t just be watching from the sidelines. When you join we’ll provide training from our insurance experts, as well as some soft-skills training, which will help you better build some of the relationships you’ll need. 

You’ll then get to roll up your sleeves, get involved, work alongside experienced people and start to understand how things really work. It’s a short, fully paid experience with a big impact.

Whether you’re exploring your options or already curious about insurance, this is your opportunity to learn fast, build confidence and take your next step with clarity.
