What stood out to you about Aon?

The size of the organisation, its reputation in the market and the quality of the graduate development programme.

What are your main duties?

As an analyst I support various client teams to help meet their targets. For corporate clients, this often involves working on accounting projects and for Trustee clients, I help calculate the value of their members benefits, or the factors used to help calculate them.

What training have you received?

On the Actuarial Consulting Graduate Programme, we receive 40 study days a year to help prepare us for the actuarial exams. Aon also provides resources such as books and tutorials. There are weekly webinars which cover topics inside and outside of your role, and as an Aon graduate, I receive soft skills and technical training.

What do you find most rewarding and most challenging about your role?

I find the learning most rewarding, progressively seeing yourself improve and being able to provide value to your team is a strong motivator. The most challenging aspect of my role is probably balancing working and studying with my personal life.
