Technology and Change summer internships

We see your spark.

Find a career that exceeds your expectations.

Technology and Change Delivery.  See where your strengths can take you.

Tech’s at the heart of everything we do at Aviva. It helps us solve problems, create innovative new solutions, and put our customers first. If you’re curious about what tech can do – and excited by the idea of driving real change for our business and customers – then you’re in the right place.

We’ve got a variety of 10-week summer internships available in our Technology and Change Delivery team for students in their penultimate year of an undergraduate degree, or for those studying for a Master’s degree who will finish by September 2027.

Whichever internship you choose you’ll gain a deeper insight into the exciting world of technology and change delivery, as well as a head start on your future career. The work you do will be interesting and challenging, and you’ll have the full support of our brilliant technology and change community.

The great thing is, you don’t need to be a tech expert (or even studying it) to join us. We’re looking for naturally curious people who think big, understand the positive impact technology can have and are eager to make change happen.

Salary: £27,750
Duration: 10 weeks – 30th June – 4th September 2026
Locations: Norwich, York (varies by role type, see individual roles)

What you can expect

Our summer internships will put you at the heart of our technology and change teams, where you’ll gain invaluable on the job insight. As you grow your skills and capabilities, there’ll be lots of development opportunities which will give you the foundations you need to succeed.

Expect a workplace that’s all about people – you, your colleagues, and our customers. Tech plays a huge role here and you’ll see how it powers change and solves real problems every day, making a meaningful difference.

We want you to shine. We’ll empower you to be yourself, take ownership of your work and shape your development to be the best you can be. You’ll get real-world, hands-on experience – the kind you can’t get from textbooks or a classroom. Show us what you can do, and we’ll keep giving you more opportunities to grow, take on responsibility and make your mark.

We’re looking to find and develop the technology and change delivery stars of the future. That’s why our internship programmes feed into our graduate programmes. After completing your placement, you might be offered a permanent graduate role starting with us in September 2027 once you’ve successfully finished your course.

A bit about us

We’re one of the UK’s leading insurance companies. We’re here to support people when it matters most – through every stage of life. Whether it’s protecting their car, home, health or life, or helping them save for their future and retirement, we focus on what truly matters to our over 25 million customers in the UK, Ireland, and Canada.

But we’re more than just an insurance company. We care deeply about our people, our customers, our communities, and the planet. That’s why we’re committed to helping our customers solve life’s financial puzzles – big and small. We’re with them in the moment, and we’re thinking about what they need for tomorrow too.

Our values – commitment, care, community, and confidence – bring to life what it means to work here.

You’ll be joining a culture where you’re trusted to think for yourself. Where you can feel comfortable speaking up, think creatively to solve problems and make real change. And where everyone works to bring out the best in each other so we can help build a more positive future for our customers and communities.

Technology and Change Delivery internships

We’ve got a number of different placements across our technology and change teams. To help you, we’ve grouped them into two specialisms so you can choose which one best suits your skills, interests, and aspirations.

And remember, you don’t need to be studying for a tech degree or have loads of experience – it’s more about understanding how tech can make a difference and how we can use it to get results. So, when you’re choosing, think about your strengths and the types of things you enjoy doing, and we’ll teach you the rest.

Change Delivery

If you’re a big picture thinker who loves making things better for people – this could be a match for you. These roles are all about driving change that transforms experiences and delivers great service for our customers and colleagues.

Where you’ll be based

We have Technology and Change Delivery internship opportunities in our Norwich and York offices. Not all roles are available in every location, so you might need to be flexible about where you work and be willing to relocate if you don’t currently live within commuting distance of the relevant office. You can find out more about each location by clicking the links below.

Wherever you’re based, the likelihood is you’ll balance time in the office with working from home. We call this Smart Working. Three days in the office and two days from home every week is typical, but this will vary between teams. When you join us, your leader will take time to discuss this with you, and agree what works best for you, your team, and the business.

Even with our Smart Working approach, it’s important to note you’ll still need to live within commuting distance of your contracted office. That way you’ll get to spend time with your team in person, as well as virtually, and get access to the right internal support networks to help you to succeed.

What you’ll need

To be considered for a 10-week internship with us in any of our Technology and Change Delivery roles you’ll:

  • be a penultimate year student, studying for a Bachelor’s degree (in any subject) with one year of study remaining after the internship OR
  • be studying for, or due to start studying for a Master’s degree (in any subject) in 2026, with one year of study remaining after the internship AND:

  • be intending to return to university for your final year of study after the placement (graduating in 2027) and interested in a graduate role

We’re looking for people who are motivated to drive real change and make a positive impact for our colleagues and customers. You’ll need to be a confident communicator with a love of learning and a commitment to continually developing yourself. You’ll have an analytical mind and a talent for problem solving as well as an eagerness to question existing ways of doing things.

Most of all, we want people who care about making a difference – who enjoy helping others, are driven to create real change, and excited to learn and grow. If you’re curious about new and emerging tech and keen to explore how it can be used to make life better for our customers and colleagues, you’ll fit well here.

Our summer internships are designed to be a feeder into our Graduate Programmes. After completion of the internship, successful candidates may be offered the opportunity to return to us as a permanent graduate in September 2027, so we look for candidates who are interested in not only getting summer experience, but also those who are also looking to secure a future permanent role.

Aviva can’t provide visa sponsorship for this programme. To apply, you’ll need indefinite right to work in the UK. If this applies to you, we’d love to hear from you.
