What the day will look like in Commercial Risk

Within Risk Capital gain valuable experience assisting account executives on assigned accounts across various industries. You'll collaborate with expert colleagues to assess and mitigate risks across diverse industries while you engage in innovative solutions to deliver tailored risk management strategies, fostering profit, growth, and continuity for our clients. 

What is Reinsurance?

Reinsurance might sound complex, but here’s the simple version: It’s basically insurance for insurance companies. When big events like hurricanes or wildfires happen, insurance companies can face huge costs. Reinsurance helps them share those risks with other firms, making the whole system more stable and reliable.

If you’re someone who enjoys solving problems, thinking strategically, and working with big-picture ideas, reinsurance could be a great fit. It’s a global, fast-growing field where you’d help companies tackle their toughest challenges, like expanding into new markets, managing money wisely, improving how they operate, and attracting top talent.

Palpable Score

75.1
/ 100
Aon offers multiple real entry routes, including paid internships, graduate Launch pathways, and apprenticeships that are designed for people starting out. Aon also publishes a relatively clear early-career selection journey in public-facing guidance, but candidate experiences suggest timing and communication can still vary by role and location. The score is held back mainly by limited public outcomes data, such as conversion rates from internships to full-time roles and early-career retention or promotion metrics.
