We want to help people achieve a lifetime of financial security – even if the unexpected happens. We’ve led the way in innovation that can make people’s financial assets work smarter as well as harder. Our retirement products make planning for the future simple, easy, and fulfilling, while our online technology provides one-stop access to a universe of investment opportunity.

We help people live their best lives. We help them with the big stuff, for the moments that matter: Pensions, Savings, Investments.

As part of the Finance function, you will perform a range of activities including bank reconciliations, assisting with Financial controls testing, and reporting activities compliant with relevant regulations including Sarbanes-Oxley and Solvency II, and with Aegon methodologies and practices. You’ll also gain insight across the wider Finance function, as well as change activities impacting the wider UK business.

We are hiring a number interns to work in the Finance department for summer 2027. This 12-week internship will provide successful candidates with the opportunity to gain a basic knowledge and understanding through hands-on involvement in Aegon UK’s Finance department.

  • Interested in a career as an Accountant.
  • Available full time between June – August 2027.
  • Highly motivated, with the drive and stamina to act on your own initiative.
  • Proficient in MS Excel and Word.
  • Able to analyse and interpret large amounts of complex data. Must be a team player with strong attention to detail and an analytical approach.

We believe in hiring for potential. To help us find the best people, we ask all applicants for our Summer Interns to complete a short series of online tasks as the first step in our selection process. This is designed to find out more about you, your skills and natural behaviors. You’ll receive an email from our assessment partner (Arctic Shores) with details and an invitation to complete the tasks. These typically take 20-30mins and can be done on a variety of devices, including your phone.

The legal bits

We’ll need you to confirm you have the right to work in the UK. If we offer you a job and you accept, there are some checks we need to complete before you can start with us. This will include a credit and criminal record check, as well as providing satisfactory references.

We’re committed to embedding Inclusion, Equity and Diversity into everything we do and therefore ask that you let us know of any reasonable adjustments required by you in order to set you up for success.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
