AON plc (NYSE: AON) a leading global professional services firm, is welcoming new talent to its office in Glasgow with the arrival of nine recent graduates and one placement year student, who will commence their careers with the company.
Working across a wide range of functional areas including investment, actuarial consulting, wealth data analytics, commercial risk and reinsurance broking, the new joiners represent Aon’s commitment to inspiring and developing the next generation of inclusive leaders. The firm’s Early Careers Programmes provide meaningful work experience opportunities and the chance to enhance professional skills through on-the-job experience.
Industrial placement year students, who are in their third year of a university course, gain invaluable real-world experience at Aon before they return to complete their studies.

“Aon highly values young talent. Its various pathways – placement, apprentice, graduate – provides them with invaluable experience and the opportunity to develop new skills. Experienced colleagues also benefit from the Early Careers programme since it offers them training and development opportunities to support the students.
