A bit about us

Who we are and what we do


Making a difference, every day

We help millions of customers across the UK, Ireland and Canada protect what matters most to them and plan for their future. Whether it’s supporting someone after an accident, helping families feel financially secure, or finding better ways to prepare for tomorrow, our work has a real impact on people’s lives.

But we’re not just here to solve today’s challenges. We’re also investing in technology, data and AI to transform the way we work and deliver even better experiences for our customers.

For you, that means the opportunity to be part of a business that’s constantly evolving, bringing fresh ideas to life and making a real difference to millions of people every day.

Our locations

Our Early Careers opportunities are based in some of the UK’s most vibrant cities, giving you the chance to build your career in great places to live, work and connect with others. Not every pathway is available in every location, so check the pathway page for details of where roles are based.

Depending on the role, you may need to be flexible about where you work and willing to relocate if you don’t already live nearby.

We believe some of the best collaboration, learning and relationship building happens when people come together in-person. That’s why our colleagues spend around 50% or more of their working time in the office.

We call this Smart Working. For most colleagues, that means spending around three days a week in the office and the rest working from home. The exact balance varies by role and team, giving you the benefits of both in-person collaboration and the flexibility of working from home.

Aviva is for everyone

We welcome applications from people with different backgrounds, experiences and perspectives because we know diverse teams make us stronger.

We’re interested in people with potential, curiosity and a willingness to learn. So, if you’re excited by the opportunity but don’t meet every requirement, we’d still love to hear from you.
