What is Finance at M&G?

The Finance function sits at the heart of M&G, helping to generate value for the organisation through delivery of insights, challenge and delivery of robust, high quality financial information and involvement in strategic decisions. Finance identifies and balances the needs of relevant stakeholders and customers, including those inside and outside the finance function while ensuring appropriate controls, processes and governance are in place to safeguard the company's assets and enhance financial performance.

Finance at M&G has approx. 850 staff and as a function, is passionate about ensuring it is a diverse department where colleagues support each other, share information and ideas, and work together towards common goals. Development is seen as a priority where professional qualifications are supported alongside data and technology, leadership and collaboration skills

What is the M&G Actuarial Graduate Scheme?

The scheme is a 3-year rotational programme, resulting in a permanent role upon completion. During this time, you will be rotating through different teams within Finance, whilst following your own learner journey.

Our Actuarial stream will support you with working towards the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries (IFoA) qualification. You will receive comprehensive training provision towards gaining this, including study support, full financial support for study material, class and exam fees and study leave to prepare.

Rotations could be up to eighteen months, giving you plenty of time to become a value-add member in the team, to pick up day-to-day responsibilities, as well as working on live projects. Throughout each rotation, your manager will work with you to assess your performance: looking at your strengths and areas of development to adjust your personal development plan as your career interests develop.

Moving into the corporate world is an adjustment, and we want to make sure you feel supported in making that step. Upon joining, you will be allocated a buddy from some of our current and previous Graduates to act as a peer-mentor, and we have designed a comprehensive induction to introduce you to the world of M&G, our industry, and to also equip you with the professional skills needed to effectively transition into your first rotation.

Building a network is key to your career, M&G hosts a number of social events throughout the year, as well as a host of networking opportunities which you will be encouraged to attend.

What will you be doing?

Your rotational programme has been designed to equip you with the tools and knowledge to be successful once you finish the scheme and you will learn from our highly experienced finance professionals to help you succeed in the world of finance.

Graduates at M&G make a valuable contribution to the teams they work in and are involved in a variety of tasks, including the preparation of accounting books and records, assessment and development of financial controls, developing insight and analysis skills, presenting financial information to stakeholders and contributing towards various activities linked to the production of statutory and regulatory reporting and management information.

Who are we looking for?

We are looking for candidates who are enthusiastic, eager to learn, and have a genuine interest in starting their career in Finance. We don't require specific degrees or grades because we know each background and experience brings its own skills and individual perspective to M&G. This programme will teach you the technical and professional skills you need to be successful in your career, as long as you are committed to investing the time in your own development.

Minimum Requirements
  • Recent Graduate or expected graduation date of 2025.
  • Available to start the programme on 1 September 2025.
