We want to help the London Market build a diverse, dynamic workforce which offers a deep talent pool on which the market can draw. We are working to make specialty insurance a destination career for young talent.
To achieve this the LMG is:
Been asked to present at a local school? Here’s your ready-made presentation to inspire the next generation! Jargon free, designed to excite young people, variations for different lesson times – we have done the heavy lifting for you!
With a clearly laid out plan for the session, script and slides, options for personalisation, you can pick it up and go. It’s packed with helpful career profiles, salary guides, and exciting case studies to help you spark curiosity and explain the impact of our industry.
LMG is curating a range of engaging content and marketing material for the London Insurance Life website to create a single source of information on working in the London Market. These pages bring to life the people who work here and the roles they do and includes details of entry level jobs, schemes and events for people considering a career in the London insurance market.
This material is actively promoted through social media and through campaigns in schools, colleges and universities.
From 3rd July to the 14th we held our first #futuresacademy.
In October 2023, LondonInsuranceLife ran its first collective work experience programme over two weeks, introducing Year 12 students to careers in specialty insurance. It culminated in a careers fair at which market businesses could introduce their firms to the students. The involvement of 50 market firms and over 100 volunteers in offering work experience to over 100 sixth-form students during the summer of 2023 was a genuine market first. Never before has the whole market come together to try and share with the next generation its story; that this is an exciting place to work, with career opportunities that rival banking, law and the professions. So, what have we learned?
Now in its fourth year, with more students and more firms involved ever year – the programme has gone from strength to strength, with a good percentage of its alumni now working in the market.
