Gard’s Trainee Program is a unique opportunity for graduates to launch their careers in the maritime insurance industry. Over 9 months, trainees rotate through key business areas gaining hands-on experience and insight into how the world’s largest marine insurer operates.
The program combines structured learning, mentoring, and real-world projects, offering exposure to Gard’s global network and a chance to build lasting professional relationships. Whether you have a background in law, economics, analytics, or compliance, the program is designed to help you grow into a future role at Gard.
Trainees are based in Arendal and Hong Kong, with opportunities to visit other offices and participate in cross-functional initiatives. We’re looking for curious, committed, and collaborative candidates who want to make a meaningful impact.
We take on new trainees every second year. The next opportunity to apply for a trainee role starting in autumn 2026 will be in early 2026.
