When you have built up a certain level of experience in your career, choosing your next role means considering where you can put it to work, what you want to learn and how you would like your journey to develop. The challenges you take on, the people around you and the support available can all help shape that decision.
For professionals considering a shift in their careers, WTW has several routes to explore - including insurance broking, risk advisory, consulting, analytics, technology and the functions that support a global business.
But what could working there mean for you? Here we take a closer look at what it’s like to work at WTW - a multinational organization present in 140+ markets – featuring stories from current employees that offer an insight into the work, relationships and opportunities that have shaped their careers.

Where could your experience fit?
Careers at WTW sit across four broad areas: Risk & Broking; Health, Wealth & Career; Corporate Functions and Operations & Technology.
This breadth makes it worth looking beyond the job titles you already know. Your experience could be relevant to a role that builds on your current specialism, introduces you to different client challenges or takes your technical skills in a new direction.
Below, we explore two areas in particular: risk & broking and careers in technology. Both offer ways to apply your knowledge while working alongside people with different expertise.
Risk & Broking: bring your expertise to complex client challenges
For experienced professionals, the appeal of a new role often includes the clients they will work with and the expertise they can draw on.
Dave Lofstrom, a Northeast Deputy Leader based in New England, describes how WTW’s reputation, culture and approach to innovation influenced his decision to join.
He also highlights access to specialists, thought leadership and analytical resources that help colleagues work together on client needs.
Ann Attardi, Associate Director in Risk & Analytics, provides a practical example. Her team worked with a producer on a portfolio analysis for a large financial institution, helping the client assess programme efficiency and communicate with its leadership.
These examples from WTW employees in the U.S. illustrate how relationships and technical expertise can come together in client work. For candidates, they also suggest useful questions to explore: who would you collaborate with, what resources would support you and how could your experience contribute?

Careers in technology: apply your skills to practical challenges
WTW’s work also creates career paths for people with expertise in technology. The teams combine expert advice with cutting-edge technology to help the company’s clients discover opportunities and thrive, no matter what the future holds.
Technology is at the heart of so much that we do today. And we’re constantly exploring new ideas to make an even greater impact in the future. This can only happen with great colleagues joining us with technology backgrounds that keep pushing the innovations forward.
In their tech teams, WTW tackle some of our industry’s biggest and most complex challenges. And they solve them together. Joining WTW means being surrounded by smart and ambitious colleagues who are designing how modern technology operates at scale. It also means exploring the potential of agentic AI and high-performance computing.
What support could you draw on?
The role itself is one part of the decision, but candidates will also naturally want to understand how they can develop, build relationships and feel part of the organisation.
WTW’s learning and development resources include online learning, mentoring and coaching tools, leadership courses and training tailored to individual and business needs.
Its values include teamwork, respect and professional growth. Seven colleague inclusion networks, open to all colleagues, provide further opportunities to connect, including its Multicultural, Workability and Caregivers networks.
Working arrangements are another consideration. WTW describes an approach called Flexible Work Styles, encompassing different working options and encourages candidates to discuss these during the recruitment process. The arrangements available should be explored in relation to the specific role, while benefits vary by country.
