Insurance is so much more than you think!

Forget any preconceptions you have about internships and the insurance industry. Our 10-week summer programmes give you a real job with real responsibility and a taste for life working at Zurich.
With plenty of support around you, you’ll experience how your future career might look and help us make a difference to our customers at a time when they need us the most.
Our summer internships are ideal for undergraduate students. As well as gaining some great experience, successful completion of your internship in 2026 could lead to you being offered a place on one of our graduate programmes starting in 2027.
What can I look forward to?
As an Accounting Intern you will have the opportunity to develop your personal and professional skills, while learning from industry experts and senior managers who take a keen interest in your growth. We are passionate about ensuring you settle into the working environment effectively and offer a buddy/mentor at the very start, someone who has been in your shoes.
In addition to your department's day-to-day activities, you can expect to be involved in real projects that deliver value to our business and customers. These could include process transformation, providing financial support to the business or developing MI for management, all while being grounded in the accounting that forms the backbone of our profession.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

- You must be in your penultimate year of undergraduate study and on track for a predicted 2:1 (or equivalent)
- As Accounting is based in numbers, we prefer a numeric degree, but this isn’t a requirement. A passion for becoming an effective accountant is more important.
- At least 96 UCAS points from 3 A-Level subjects (or equivalent) excluding general studies.
- A minimum C/4 grade in both English and Maths at GCSE level (or equivalent).
- Although we are a hybrid workforce, you should be within a commutable distance to the office workplace stated in this advert.
