DUAL Warranty & Indemnity Underwriting Summer Internship
Discover How Major Business Transactions Get Over the Finish Line.
Looking for more than just work experience? If you’re curious about how major business transactions happen and what protects buyers or sellers when things do not go to plan, this could be the perfect way to spend your summer. Join DUAL Underwriting for a summer internship in our Warranty & Indemnity team.
You’ll gain hands-on experience of underwriting, develop your commercial judgement and see how insurance supports multi-million-pound Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) transactions. This is your chance to step into the shoes of an Underwriting Assistant and learn how they assess complex risks and decide the appropriate pricing, terms and insurance protection for clients.
The 10-week programme is designed to give you meaningful exposure to the world of insurance underwriting while helping you develop the knowledge, professional skills and confidence to kick start your career.
Better still, our programme offers a direct pathway into our Autumn 2028 graduate roles, subject to business needs and individual performance.
What you’ll be doing?
You will begin with a structured induction before joining our Warranty & Indemnity Underwriting team, where you will work alongside experienced specialists on real transactions.
During the programme, you’ll:
•
Review live transactions and broker enquiries.
•
Learn how underwriting teams assess and price risk.
•
Keep key underwriting data accurate and up to date.
•
Support invoice processing and day-to-day administrative tasks.
•
Collaborate with colleagues and build relationships with brokers and insurers.
Who are we looking for?
No insurance experience is needed; we’ll teach you everything you need to know!
You’ll be:
•
In your penultimate year of a History, Economics or Law degree.
•
Organised, analytical and comfortable working with basic numbers.
•
Curious and able to draw clear conclusions from information.
•
A confident communicator who is willing to share ideas.
•
Collaborative, enthusiastic and ready to get involved.
•
Able to adapt when priorities or information change.
To be eligible for our programme, you must have the full and unrestricted right to work in the UK.
Application process
Our application process is designed to help you show your potential, not to test what you already know!
•

•
Assessment centre: Our final stage is an in-person assessment centre at one of our offices. You’ll take part in some fun group activities and meet our team in a relaxed setting. This day is all about getting to know you better and for you to see what it’s like to be part of Howden and experience our culture. We’ll cover all your travel costs for this day, because where you are now, shouldn’t hold back your future!
