Meaningful career opportunity
Kian Hearn, Claims Apprentice at ERS, said: "As a young person, I didn’t think apprenticeships were available in insurance and finance, and university didn’t seem like the right fit for me.
"But here I can earn good money, learn on the job and get a qualification at the same time, all while working in a friendly, welcoming environment."
Martin Hall, Active Underwriter at ERS, said: "At ERS, we understand the importance of creating meaningful career opportunities in South Wales.
