Growth and development

Whenever you ask people what they really want from work, a lot of the time they'll say they want to do a great job and have the ability to grow. Development is a basic need for humans, we've been doing it since inception, so an organisation that doesn't take it seriously isn't likely to survive.

At Aviva, we place a strong emphasis on growth and development, giving everyone a fair opportunity to talk about their career plans and potential opportunities:

• New employees have access to an induction programme where they learn about our values and our Corporate Responsibility programme
• As part of our performance management process we'll agree a development plan for you, to make sure you receive the right training and development
• We use various training methods - development centres, 1:1 coaching, management skills programmes and more
• We also offer innovative computer-based training
• Some of our companies give people the option to study for formal qualifications
