Apprentice Program - Finance

The world isn’t standing still, and neither is Allstate. We’re moving quickly, looking across our businesses and brands and taking bold steps to better serve customers’ evolving needs. That’s why now is an exciting time to join our team. You’ll have opportunities to take risks, challenge the status quo and shape the future for the greater good.

 

You’ll do all this in an environment of excellence and the highest ethical standards – a place where values such as integrity, inclusive diversity and accountability are paramount. We empower every employee to lead, drive change and give back where they work and live. Our people are our greatest strength, and we work as one team in service of our customers and communities.

 

Plus, Allstate is changing how, when, and where we work-to lead us boldly into our future. We're empowering our employees to create better ways of working through more intentional use of communication and collaboration practices, processes and tools.

 

Everything we do at Allstate is driven by a shared purpose: to protect people from life’s uncertainties so they can realize their hopes and dreams. For more than 89 years we’ve thrived by staying a step ahead of whatever’s coming next – to give customers peace of mind no matter what changes they face. We acted with conviction to advocate for seat belts, air bags and graduated driving laws. We help give survivors of domestic violence a voice through financial empowerment. We’ve been an industry leader in pricing sophistication, telematics, digital photo claims and, more recently, device and identity protection. We are the Good Hands. We don’t follow the trends. We set them.

 

 

Job Description

 

Start your career with a part-time job while you’re earning your associate degree! Apply to be a part of the Allstate Apprenticeship Program, a 12-24 month, fully remote, paid opportunity designed to give you hands-on experience in a career-related field while you are enrolled at a community or technical college.  

 

Think that working in the insurance field can’t be exciting, rewarding, and challenging? Think again. As an apprentice at Allstate, you’ll contribute to projects and systems that have a real impact on our business while working in a collaborative environment that builds you up and supports long-term growth in your skills and career. Here, you’ll have the opportunity to expand and apply your skills in ways you never thought possible. And you’ll have fun doing it! Join a company of individuals with hopes, plans and passions, all using and developing our talents for good, at work and in life.  

 

In the Finance roles for our Apprentice Program, this will support either our Accounting team or Finance team. Qualified candidates will get matched with a specific role based on their intended career interest, academic qualifications, and work experience for the full duration of the program.  

 

Learn 

Apprentices will spend between 20-30 hours a week engaged in hands-on learning to help build a strong career foundation. We provide flexible scheduling to accommodate your life and school commitments.  

 

Earn 

Apprentices will receive a comprehensive total rewards package that includes pay, benefits and programs to help you balance work with the rest of your life. You can choose whatever benefits are most important to you. Plus, you’ll have the option to take advantage of Allstate’s tuition assistance program. 

 

Develop 

Allstate partners with a Chicago-based non-profit, One Million Degrees (OMD). OMD hosts monthly virtual mandatory professional development sessions and provides regular check-ins to ensure you’re on track to achieve your academic and career goals.
