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, Finance, or Natural Sciences. You will have already gained some practical experience through Finance-related internships, and are now keen to apply your knowledge within an organisation that truly recognises and rewards your contributions. Your strong analytical and interpersonal skills already make 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 2011start, we are looking for talented graduates to join one of our Finance teams. The opportunities are varied – ranging from Controlling, where you will focus on forecasting, planning and reporting, to Financial Analysis, where you would conduct strategic analyses of global business units’ performance or evaluate business proposals.

There is a lot that we will teach you during the Global Associate Program. But you’ll already have an excellent grounding, because you’ll have a Master in Economics, Finance, or Natural Sciences. You will have already gained some practical experience through Finance-related internships, and are now keen to apply your knowledge within an organisation that truly recognises and rewards your contributions. Your strong analytical and interpersonal skills already make you stand out from the crowd, as do your excellent communication skills in both English and German.


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.
