Leadership

Leading an organisation of Aviva's size and complexity is a major challenge in a number of ways. Naturally the figures tell a story in themselves - as the world's fifth largest insurance company with 57,000 employees serving 45 million customers in 40 countries, we rely heavily on the inspirational talent and gravitas of our Senior Management.

But it's about more than that. We're committed to expanding our business operations only in sectors we can lead, using our huge resources wisely and decently, and delivering progressive, innovative products that allow our customers to make the most of their lives. That takes the best efforts of the very best people to pull off.

Development

Even before each leader joins, we set in motion their personal development process. From day one they will have access to a whole host of external and internal resources aimed at bringing the very best out of them and their teams, each and every day. These resources include training courses, mentoring, leadership networks and an online leadership portal.

What we look for in a leader

Aviva leaders are true visionaries. They bring credibility and a wealth of practical expertise - knowing customers' needs, the importance of continuous improvement, confident stakeholder management, commerciality, strategic acumen and a focus on results.

In essence, our leaders have the skill and experience to pinpoint what matters to them, the business and to the individuals in their teams - and enhance our work at every level. 

Rewards

The challenge of shaping a global business in your own image offers great professional and personal satisfaction. You'll see your innovations enhance the way we work, strategically and practically. And you'll have the freedom to build your profile, make your name in our multi-billion pound industry and get the recognition your undoubted talent deserves.
