Zurich is one of the world’s largest insurance groups, and one of the few to operate on a truly global basis. Our mission is to help our customers understand and protect themselves from risk.
With over 60,000 employees serving customers in more than 170 countries, we aspire to become the best global insurer as measured by our shareholders, customers and employees.
We offer a wide range of general and life insurance products and services for individuals, small businesses, mid-sized and large companies and multinational corporations. We have strong positions in North America and Europe, and growing positions in Asia-Pacific, the Middle East and Latin America.


You’ll already have an excellent grounding, because you’ll have a Master in Economics, Engineering, Mathematics, IT or Computer Science. You really want to work in a dynamic, challenging environment – for a company that recognises your contributions and rewards every bit of your creativity. Your motivation to learn and succeed already makes you stand out from the crowd, as do your excellent communication skills in both English and German.


“I’m ready to succeed on an international scale. And this is where I start.”


Think bigger. Think graduate fast-track and international opportunities where you can work with some of the finest minds in their fields. In our year-long Global Associate Program, through a combination of personal mentoring and classroom training, we’ll bring out the best in you – and equip you for a high level global career with one of the world’s biggest insurers.

The Global Associate Program offers you diverse entry positions in a number of functional areas. For a September 2011 start, we still are looking for talented graduates to join our Operations business, where you have the chance to work in IT, Sourcing & Relationship Management, Program Management Office or Group IT Security. Depending on which team you join, you will get the chance to hone your project management skills by experiencing different projects from planning through to evaluation. Or alternatively, you may work on vendor management strategies to optimally support our core business functions, or ensure that our operational activities are compliant with IT security frameworks.


Development isn’t just a buzz word on our Global Associate Programme. We’re committed to investing in you – so you in turn can make us the best we can be.
