WHY US?

We are a global leader in Insurance broking, risk management and consulting, with over 39,000 employees worldwide in over 130 countries. We have a global reach with a local presence and pride ourselves on being a socially responsible and an ethical organisation expressed through our Shared Values, The Gallagher Way. We are proud to have been awarded, for the 13th consecutive year, the 2023 World’s Most Ethical Companies by Ethisphere Institute (2023), as well as being one of Insurance Business Australia Top Insurance Employers and Forbes Best Employer for Women.

We have been nurturing the careers of graduates and interns for almost 50 years and we take as much care with today’s grads as we did with our very first, our founder’s grandson. 

Joining Gallagher means much more than joining a graduate program. You’ll be joining a global community who care about sustainability, about diversity, about doing good. About you and where your career can go. 

The Gallagher Graduate Program is designed for you to learn more about what it means to be an Insurance Broker. It is a rotational program, exposing you to different areas of the business.

Gallagher was founded by Arthur J Gallagher in a basement office in Chicago in 1927. Our Global Chairman, CEO and President, J Patrick Gallagher – Arthur's grandson – started as an intern in 1972. Gallagher has remained true to its origins and places a strong emphasis on maintaining a family feel; a unique culture for a global organisation.

Our Australian branch network includes 32+ branches, and we partner with more than 100,000 Australian businesses, from small businesses through to multinational corporations and iconic brands.

RECRUITMENT PROCESS

Here at Gallagher, we embrace diversity and difference, and we’re looking for graduates from all walks of life and all areas of study. We look at more than your GPA and are interested in hearing from people who are well rounded contributors, whatever that may look like in your life. 

We welcome graduates from any discipline; it’s more important to us that you have enthusiasm and drive, than comprehensive prior knowledge or understanding of the industry. 

Once you have submitted your application, we typically go through the following process:

• Graduate recruitment team reviews your application
• Informal phone interview
• A face to face or virtual interview with Graduate recruitment team and Senior Leaders
• Conduct psychometric assessment and background checks
• Offer is made for the next Graduate Program
• You begin your career at Gallagher!

While our graduate program runs for 12 months, we hope you’ll stay longer. Once you successfully complete your program, you’ll be offered a full time Account Executive position with us and become part of our growing graduate alumni community.

Gallagher is an Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) employer committed to the principles of workplace diversity and inclusion. We welcome all people regardless of ethnicity, faith, sexual orientation, gender identity and lifestyle choices. We are committed to providing a working environment that embraces and values diversity, equity and inclusion. 

Just like our culture, our recruitment process is inclusive. We invite you to speak with us if you require any accommodations to set you up for success during the hiring period.
