Ariel Re welcomes four summer interns

Re/insurer Ariel Re has welcomed its fourth cohort of summer interns to its Bermuda office. 

The global re/insurer said the four Bermudian students will learn how a reinsurance company works from the inside, and will develop their knowledge of the industry.

The students are Gaby Furr, who attends Queen’s University and studies political science and economics; Heston Kessell who attends the University of Guelph and studies economics; Moriah Wheddon, who is studying accounting at Bermuda College; and Matthew Brookes, who attends the University of Kent, studying finance and investment.

“We look forward to the fourth cohort of internship students joining us at Ariel Re this year, and to another year of developing reinsurance talent,” Head of Human Resources Lindsay Hyland said.

“The latest group of intern students further demonstrate Ariel Re’s commitment to being a place where talented individuals come to enhance their careers and knowledge. We hope that the new group of students eventually seek a career in reinsurance and may even want to join us permanently.”

The students will learn about a variety of roles within the sector, including underwriting and claims, catastrophe modelling and actuarial science. As well as working in the different departments, they will be tasked with several projects and attend daily meetings.
