WTW, the insurance broker and advisory firm formerly called Willis Towers Watson, runs six early careers strands in the UK and Ireland: graduate programmes, internships, university placements, apprenticeships, and two insight programmes called Step Up with WTW and Level Up with WTW. The roles we track are mostly Retirement Actuarial, which they run across seven UK cities, alongside Corporate Risk and Broking in London and Ipswich.

How WTW recruits

Applications go through WTW's own careers site, and each programme posts its own dated vacancy rather than sharing one deadline. Their placements page says they "partner with select universities to offer placements in areas such as Insurance Consultancy and Technology, Investment, and Retirement Actuarial, providing essential industry experience, the opportunity to deliver real work and to pave the way for applying for our Graduate Programs", so a placement is an explicit route into the graduate scheme rather than a separate track.

WTW's 2027 graduate and internship vacancies were posted between 1 and 11 September 2026 and carry a stated closing date of 10 December 2026, which is unusual: most employers on this site publish no closing date at all. Both insight programmes ran in the summer of 2026, Level Up virtually on 23 and 24 June and Step Up in the Ipswich office on 8 and 9 July, and both pages now say "Check back in early 2027 for more updates".

Worth knowing

  • Graduate programmes "typically last two years", in WTW's own words.
  • For the Level Up insight programme they ask that "You are currently studying an undergraduate degree in any discipline and are eligible to complete a summer internship in 2027" and that "You are on track to achieve a 2:1 in your degree".
  • On the actuarial route specifically: "If you are considering an actuarial career, you must have at least a B in A-level Maths or be studying a numerate degree discipline."
  • Step Up with WTW is for school leavers rather than undergraduates: "You are in year 12 at high school or the penultimate year of college."
  • The 2027 Retirement Actuarial graduate and intern programmes are posted separately for London, Reigate, Birmingham, Bristol, Manchester, Edinburgh and Leeds, so applying to the city you want matters.
