If you wonder what it might be like working for us, read Louise's testimony below:
Louise - "I started off at AXA nearly five years ago as a Customer Service Agent straight from college.

On top of talking to our customers everyday about their car insurance, I did an apprenticeship paid for by AXA and then subsequently gained my Cert CII and Insurance Practitioner Apprenticeship which gave me a wealth of knowledge of the industry and business.

Since finishing my apprenticeship I have been given amazing opportunities to work in other areas of the business such as the document admin team, assisted in new inductions alongside the training team, became a team assistant and now I'm now working on a multimillion-pound transformation project which has really allowed me to develop and push myself.

I have received endless support from my line manager, colleagues, team members and other managers from the business to support my development and excel within my job.
