Insurance Institute of Liverpool Insurance and Financial Services Careers Event

Working on your Future’
Your Invitation to a FREE Insurance & Financial Services Student Careers Event – Wednesday 4th July – Crowne Plaza, Liverpool
The insurance and financial services sectors may not instantly be at the forefront of teenagers’ minds when they leave school but these sectors offer so many opportunities for long term employment, and not always in ways you might expect. With over 315,000 employees in this country alone, the UK Insurance Sector is the 3rd largest employer in the world, dealing with all types of risk, from motor and travel to emerging technologies and cyber crime. Likewise a financial planner can be acting for a pensioner one day and a celebrity footballer the next. Whether youngsters are interested in client-facing roles, or business functions like IT, HR or marketing, there is a career for them.
To learn more we would like to invite you and your students to our free careers event in the centre of Liverpool. Aimed at all Year 11-13 students they will:-
• Hear from current graduates and apprentices about their routes in to these professions;
• Learn more about the work these industries do in insuring risks and financial planning;
• Develop employable skills by taking part in our interactive Discover Risk and Discover Fortunes team activities;
• Ask questions of key industry professionals to consider if a career in these sectors is right for them;
Registration is from 9.30am, and the events runs from 10.00am to 3.30pm. Lunch will be provided. We would be delighted if you could join us.
Please respond to Liverpoolinstitute@cii.co.uk by Wednesday 13th June confirming whether your school or college would be interested in attending, plus an estimate of the number of students. We will then send you further details including the full programme and joining instructions. We are happy for students to come as individuals if they prefer rather than part of a larger group.
