WTW: does its actuarial graduate programme sponsor a UK visa?

Only some tracksActuarial Graduate Programme (Insurance Consulting and Retirement streams)

Only in part. WTW sponsors its actuarial graduate programme for some tracks or offices, not all. Programmes include Actuarial Insurance Consulting (Life), Retirement Actuarial, and other technical and consulting streams, each needing at least a 2:1 in a numerate discipline, or a 2:1 in any discipline plus an A or B in A-level Maths. WTW offers a flexible study support package covering professional body membership fees, tutorials and study materials for IFoA or CFA exams. WTW's own careers site says it does not accept visa sponsorship candidates for all roles and tells applicants to check the individual job description.

The catch: Sponsorship availability is set per vacancy, so the same actuarial stream can be open to international candidates in one office and closed in another.
