Underwriter - Financial Lines, Allianz Commercial, Singapore
"I started my Allianz journey as a consultant in the Allianz Consulting APAC hub, where I collaborated with colleagues from different entities and diverse cultural backgrounds on various APAC projects. After nearly 4 years of consulting work, I moved into the Allianz Commercial Global Process Management team, where I was involved in a range of global and regional projects focused on driving productivity and improving processes. Through these initiatives, I have gained a comprehensive understanding of the end-to-end processes."

These programmes have not only helped me improve my skills in the Finance, Actuarial and Risk areas but have also connected me with outstanding mentors who have guided me along my career path. The relationships I have established with my mentors are priceless, and they continue to support me even long after the programmes have ended. I have been fortunate to meet and learn from exceptional mentors who have helped me navigate my career path and provided valuable insights into both work and life outside of work."

"Allianz is the place for those who dare, making it an exceptional launchpad for aspiring young professionals. My own journey with Allianz began as an intern, where the consummate professionalism and collaborative culture facilitated a seamless transition from academia to industry. Following a fruitful internship, I was honored to accept a full-time position at AIM Singapore. Today, as a Senior Associate, I'm covering Allianz's investment management function in the APAC region, concentrating on strategic asset allocation and pioneering digital innovation. Allianz offers not only global exposure and a culture of mutual respect but also an unparalleled opportunity to mold oneself and leave a lasting impact on the world."

"The best kind of support one could ever hope for is an employer’s support when one must choose between career and family.
Earlier this year I had to pick between family and my job due to a personal circumstance. Allianz gave me the opportunity to work part-time, which was the best choice for me!"

"My family has greatly benefitted from Allianz's improved paternity leave policy, which now offers fathers up to 4 weeks of leave.
I was recently blessed with a newborn and was able to fully take advantage of this initiative. Paternity leave allowed me to spend time with my family without worrying about work."

Terre Goh
Management Trainee, Allianz SE Reinsurance Branch Asia Pacific
"As a fresh graduate who has only just set foot into the corporate world, working at Allianz has been nothing but the best first job I could have taken up. Embarking on the journey of my first job was an exhilarating experience to say the least; I was fraught with both nervousness and anticipation for what was to come, well aware that this would more than likely set the tone for my future career endeavours. And I was spot-on – this journey has been truly transformative, and the people I met along the way have only spurred me to reach for greater heights."
