We were delighted to be acknowledged for our on going commitment to the Apprenticeship Programme by our Insurance Network at the recent ‘Live’ Conference.

Our Apprenticeship Programme, which was first established in the 1990s, goes from strength to strength and attracts high calibre young people to both the company and the industry. Evidence of our programme’s success lies in the fact that two of our early apprentices, Daniel Weston and Russell Thynne are now both directors of the company.

In recent years, the scheme has grown in importance and today is actively supported by the Government as a means of attracting young people to the industry. During the two-year programme, apprentices attend college and study for an NVQ in Business Administration, as well as working in the office and gaining invaluable ‘on the job’ experience in such areas as day-to-day administration, simple valuations, contacting providers, processing applications and keeping clients informed.

Committed to the programme, we continue to employ apprentices and can boast a number of success stories, with candidates qualifying in both financial services and general insurance. Very much part of the team while studying, candidates are encouraged to continue their studies and career progression within the industry once qualified.

We were delighted that Willis Towers Watson Networks officially recognised the success of the programme at the recent conference.
