Woodgate & Clark has become a signatory of Insurance Times' Destination Insurance Charter, committing the business to the actions set out in the Charter, as part of its learning, development and talent acquisition strategy. Through initiatives such as this, we can work together as a sector to strengthen the talent pipeline, share best practice and build a more sustainable future for the market.
The Destination Insurance Charter forms part of Insurance Times’ broader talent campaign which aims to support the UKGI industry to mitigate its unique talent challenges by instigating market-wide collaboration and being a prominent source of best practice information, ideas and insight.
The Key Commitments of the Charter include:
- Ensuring recruitment practices are fit for purpose.
- Engaging with educational institutions to promote insurance careers.
- Supporting inter-sector collaboration to attract talent.
- Analysing and improving career development pathways.
- Involvement in the annual Destination Insurance conference
We know at Woodgate & Clark that investing in future talent and leadership pipelines remains key. Through graduate schemes and career fairs we are already actively encouraging young people to join our sector, while emerging leaders are identified and developed through structured executive leadership programmes.
Woodgate & Clark’s own people philosophy is built around individualised development, internal mobility, and a strong culture of continuous learning. Nevertheless, we recognise that attracting and retaining talent persists as an industry wide challenge in insurance. Woodgate & Clark is therefore proud to be a signatory of the Destination Insurance Charter. Aligning our people strategy with the stated commitments will further strengthen our talent pipeline and help ensure we can work more collaboratively with the market to make insurance a career destination of choice.
