We can never claim to know exactly what tomorrow will bring, but we like to think we’ve a better idea than most. It’s our business, after all. Now, if there’s one thing we can be sure of, it’s this: technology and its creative and effective use will be central to our continued commercial success. And leading this technological charge? Graduates on our flagship two-year Future Leaders Graduate Programme.

Whichever area of our business you go into – AXA Wealth, AXA Commercial Lines and Personal Intermediary, AXA Direct and Partnerships, or AXA PPP healthcare – you’ll help to develop innovative strategies that really put the customer at the heart of what we do. In each of your three eight-month placements, you’ll get involved in challenging, stretching work, in a supportive and stimulating environment. Through on-the-job learning and by working closely with experienced colleagues, through workshops, webinars, online learning tools, even business games, you’ll build your capabilities, skills and knowledge, from how you work with others, to leading people, to strategic thinking. In other words, everything you need to be a Future Leader of AXA.

We want creative thinkers. Graduate who are relentlessly curious. You’ll need to be digitally savvy too, with a good grasp on technology and a solid understanding of all things social media. You’re detail conscious and doggedly tenacious, stopping at nothing to get the job done and done well. And while you’re adaptable and ambitious, you’ve the ability to focus on the job in hand. And you love a challenge. Which means that obstacles don’t stay obstacles for long. And responsibility? Bring it on. We’d like you to have a 2:1 degree (or above) in any discipline.

First things first. We’re big. Impressively and successfully big. We’re the world’s number one insurance brand, with some 102 million customers and 166,000 people globally. But big doesn’t mean impersonal or distant. Not in our world anyway. And big, we believe, isn’t necessarily best when it comes to graduate programmes. So we keep the numbers on our graduate programmes small. By keeping them small, you get real work and real responsibility, personal attention and undivided support, tailored development and ready access to senior leaders. What’s more, your ideas will be heard, your creativity will be seen, and you’ll have the chance to add your colour to our incredible business.

2:1 degree (in any discipline/subject)

What do you think about when you hear the name HP? Is it printers? Laptops? Maybe it’s Beats Audio™? Most people do. It’s understandable – these are our products people see every day. But what about the other sides to HP? The side that helps the MOD get a 3D view of a battlefield? The side that brings a kung fu panda to life or changes the way people see and interact with the world? We’re a multi-faceted company. Join one of our graduate programmes and you’ll see them all.

Consulting
On this programme, we’ll use our resources and expertise to turn you into a trusted Technical or Security Consultant. In these roles, you’ll be building strong relationships with our clients – advising them how they can use our technology to their advantage.

Business
On this programme, which typically lasts up to 24 months, we’ll use our resources and expertise to turn you into a trusted member of our Business team. You could work in Global Procurement, Sales, Presales, General Management or as Business Analyst. Whatever the role, you'll be at the heart of the profitability of HP – getting the most out of our resources, dealing with our customers, driving sales or delivering the business strategy that keeps us competitive.

IT
The IT programme also lasts up to 24 months, and like the business programme, we’ll use our resources and expertise to turn you into a trusted Technical Architect, Solution Architect or Developer. You'll already have some IT experience. This programme will help you build on it for a rewarding career with one of the largest technology companies in the world.

Project/Programme Management On this 24 month programme, from inception to delivery, you'll get full exposure to a project's lifecycle, learn about our client relationships and the businesses expectations and strategy and we will do all we can to prepare you for a role as a Project Analyst. So, if you want a development scheme that teaches you about business and consulting then this is for you.

It all begins with an induction where you’ll get to grips with our business and how you fit into it. You’ll attend workshops, work on projects and undergo intensive professional, technical and project management training in order to prepare you for your new role. After that, you’ll have the chance to put your classroom learning to the test on live work. Wherever you join, straight away, you'll be working with people who are experts in their field. But we’ll still expect you to give your insight and opinion, and make a real contribution every day.

To help you, throughout this scheme, your training and development won’t stop. You’ll attend sessions designed to hone your soft skills, such as presenting, influencing and communicating effectively. And you’ll have the support of your line manager, an assigned mentor and a graduate-level buddy. Through ongoing appraisals and feedback processes, you’ll plot and control your career – taking you from entry-level position to specialist, expert and beyond.

You’ll need a minimum 2:1 degree for all programmes with a business-related discipline for Business; a computing-related discipline, plus a good understanding of IT for our IT Programme; IT skills coupled with an analytical and numerate mind for Project Management; a relevant technical field, such as Computing, Computer Science or Computer Security for Consulting;

For all programmes you will need to be customer-focused, you'll be an enthusiastic and driven team player, combining a proactive and positive outlook with a good work ethic and desire to learn. Experience of excelling in a fast-paced and high-pressure environment would be a real advantage
