Leading global professional services firm, Aon plc (NYSE: AON), has welcomed nine new graduates, an apprentice and two placement students to its office in Birmingham as part of its Early Careers programme.
The new recruits join the firm’s Wealth team, gaining meaningful hands-on experience in pensions actuarial, investment, client management, data solutions and broader professional development. All new joiners will receive guidance and support to develop into future leaders at Aon.
Aon’s Early Careers Programme offers three routes – graduate, apprenticeship and placement year. The firm’s graduate programme, called ‘Launch,’ is focused on cultivating high achievers and preparing them for future leadership roles, as well as ensuring a smooth transition into full-time positions. Aon’s apprenticeship programme offers a comprehensive 18-month to two-year experience that blends education with practical work. Placement year students, currently in their third year of university, gain invaluable real-world experience before returning to complete their degree.
Karenpreet Sandhu, senior consultant at Aon in Birmingham, said:
“Aon’s Early Careers programme attracts the best and brightest talent. Due to the programme’s success and reputation, competition is high every year to gain a place on the graduate, apprenticeship and placement schemes. We are always impressed by the wide range of talent that we attract.
“I’d like to congratulate and welcome this year’s new joiners to the Birmingham team and I look forward to watching them flourish in their careers.”
