Tech & Change Delivery Returners - Data Engineer
Data Engineer – Salary £45,000 to £55,000
Are you ready to return to work after a career break? Do you have a passion for transformation? Do you like to challenge the status quo, think differently and look at ways technology can solve business problems? Then the Aviva Tech & Change Delivery Returner Programme could be just what you’re looking for.
The Programme is now in its fourth year and is for those who’ve had an extended career break of two or more years, as of January 2025. This is a tailored six-month programme, with the opportunity to transition to a permanent role.
We are currently recruiting for a Data Engineer to be a part of our team! At Aviva, we love to constantly innovate and improve the experience and security for our customers.
For our Tech & Change Delivery Returner opportunities, you will need to have previously worked in a similar role to that being advertised. You don’t need to be from an insurance background, we’re interested in meeting you irrespective of which industry you’ve previously worked in.
A bit about the Programme:
* Aviva is offering a paid six-month returner programme starting Tuesday 13th May 2025, with the expectation of a permanent role at the end.
* Our Data Engineering role will be offered at Aviva’s Norwich office.
* Aviva flexes hours and working patterns to suit its customers, business, and you.
* The likelihood is you’ll balance time in the office (minimum 50%) with working from home each week. We call this Smart Working, combining the benefits of flexibility with time together with colleagues. Therefore, you’ll need to be willing to relocate if you don’t currently live within reasonable commuting distance of the relevant office for the role you are applying for.
* Your journey on the programme starts with easing you in on your first day – getting your IT Kit and meeting your Leader and Buddy. This is followed by a Programme Induction where you’ll meet the Programme Leads and the other returners joining. During this time, you’ll find out more about Aviva, the Tech & Change Delivery Returner Programme and you’ll join your first of four Career Returners Coaching Workshops.
* You’ll then join your team where you’ll collaborate with lots of forward-thinking people – working alongside, sharing ideas with, and learning from the best in the business.
* You’ll get to work (and play) with all the latest tech and be involved in some fascinating initiatives to make life better for our 19.6 million customers or colleagues.
* Throughout the Programme, you’ll have a great internal and external support to help you to transition successfully back into the workplace, including a Leader, Mentor and Buddy and specialised returner coaching.
* You’ll also enjoy the support of your peers and the Programme Leads on the returner programme and from previous cohorts.
