Outstanding insurance and reinsurance professionals in Australia and New Zealand now have the chance to grab a 'once-in-a-lifetime' career-enhancing opportunity with the opening for submissions of the 2018 Aon Benfield Scholarship.
To apply for the scholarship, applicants – Australian and NZ permanent residents or citizens, who are currently residing in Australia or NZ and have at least two years’ reinsurance experience – must tackle the topic, ‘the non-insurance gap – a growth opportunity?’ in a 2,500-word essay.
Applications must be lodged before June 26 at 5pm. The winner, who will be announced on Aug. 21, will travel to London to attend the 53rd annual Aon Benfield Global Clients Reinsurance Seminar from Sept. 10 – 20.
“With an opportunity to explore, analyse, and discuss issues significant to our industry, the scholarship provides insurance professionals the opportunity to help navigate our industry and inspire and evoke possible change,” said Robert De Souza, president APAC and CEO Aon Benfield Australia and New Zealand. “This year’s topic will create excellent discussion and debate and I look forward to seeing what the submissions have to offer to the industry.”
“This scholarship offers insurance professionals a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to attend the Aon Benfield Global Clients Reinsurance Seminar where they will have the opportunity to continue their development, build their international business networks, and increase their industry knowledge,” ANZIIF CEO Prue Willsford said.
