Meet Our Graduate Trainee Program Alumni

“The Marsh Graduate Trainee program is an excellent way to kick-start your career in insurance and risk management. I started in global placement, getting experience broking various insurance coverages for our clients. I then rotated onto the corporate practice where I was responsible for maintaining a book of international energy accounts. Marsh is full of experienced professionals that will give you mentoring and career coaching to advance you at a fast pace, and I have learned so much working for an industry leader like Marsh and its diverse amount of commercial clients.”
