We empower each other to shine in our careers. We provide the training, development, and opportunity to advance your individual strengths.
We embrace accountability, new ideas and proactivity to move you and our business continuously forward.
Investing in you
When you join us, you’ll get a really warm welcome as well as great development. If you’re not already one of our colleagues and would like to join us, why not see our job vacancies, or explore our graduate programmes or UK apprenticeships?
We're deeply invested in our people
We want you to be able to continually develop, grow and shine in your career.
Aviva University and its business academies give you everything you need to ignite your talents and spark your most brilliant self.
So, wherever you are in your unique career journey, you’ll find loads of learning to explore and do, whenever you want to.
Whether it’s learning for your current role or developing your skills for the future, we’ve got you covered.
And if you’re a leader, we have some great leadership programmes and self-serve bitesize learning to help you develop and shine for your team.
Aviva truly invests in its people, especially when you're keen to develop and progress. I’ve had the privilege of working with so many teams across different markets since joining the graduate leadership programme in 2016, and have felt valued throughout my time here. I know the work I do has a tangible, positive impact on our people. It’s one of the main reasons I'm so proud to work here. My friends reckon I’m an Aviva lifer.
Building your skills
Brilliant learning opportunities
In a constantly changing world, we’re committed to building your skills for the future and making sure we have the right learning for everyone so you, and we, can keep growing.
That’s why we created The Aviva Foundry in the UK and Ireland to focus on building brilliant digital skills. It’s open to T-level students, local employers, and apprentices as well as our colleagues.
If that’s not for you, why not check out our Wealth academy? You can learn about our fantastic Wealth business, explore all the different careers we offer, and gain skills or qualifications too.
Whatever career path you want to take, you’ll have the chance to continuously develop through our Skills for All programme.
Aviva is a great place to create a brilliant future for yourself, and our customers.
I've always been interested in the tech industry but working full time in a customer facing role with no tech experience made this very difficult. Through the Foundry I spent two days a week building and practicing my technical skills.
The learning I acquired, allowed me to apply for and succeed in getting a role in IT as a Release Manager. I’m now in my new role (and loving it!), while finishing the rest of my digital learning.
Supporting your career
Unlock your brilliance
We’re committed to helping you unlock your brilliance, making sure you feel fulfilled, and can develop in the way you want to.
So, we actively encourage regular performance conversations.
We know the overwhelming majority who have regular performance conversations say they get valuable feedback and understand how to develop their career.
We also encourage you to have meaningful career conversations with your leader so that, together, you can talk about where you are now and the skills, knowledge, and behaviours you need to develop to reach your career goals.
