How this opportunity is different

This is a unique opportunity to be a part of a growing, fast-paced insurance space. An estimated 80% of the value of the S&P 500 is derived from company’s intellectual property, yet most companies are not yet insuring against their intellectual property risks. Aon’s IP team is educating companies (both current clients and prospective clients) about their IP risks and how the surrounding insurance marketplace can help them to manage their risks. The Aon IP team is experienced, yet still small, so operates with a “start-up” environment and feel. Personal autonomy is highly encouraged and self-motivated individuals will find an opportunity to quickly advance their career.

Skills and experience that will lead to success.
