IBC is exclusively for women working within the risk and insurance sector who aspire to progress their careers and are keen to develop their skills.  It is aimed at women who work in client or market-facing roles, operations, claims or supporting functions. The club is designed to bridge the gap between graduate schemes and senior leadership programmes. Full membership criteria are available on request.

Membership is paid for by your organisation so please speak to your manager to ask if they will support your membership. 

Alternatively your HR or learning and development manager should be able to help or contact us for more information. 

There will be a short application form designed to help to ensure that IBC is the best development option for you at this time in your career. For more details please contact us on +44 7867 542 973

All sessions will be held in a central city location running between 8.30 am – 10 am or 4 – 5.30pm to minimise the time out of the working day.

Attendance is strongly recommended as we are not able to re-run sessions for an individual. The schedule of events will be published well in advance to ensure you can plan in good time. But, of course things happen so if a member is unable to attend one of the events we encourage them to speak to one of the IBC team.  We will discuss how best to bring them up to speed.

We may suggest a call or coffee with us or that you they with their accountability partner or a membership action group who did join us to share their learning.

In addition, all learning material is available 24/7 on the IBC membership portal for the duration of the programme.

At the end of the programme, members have the opportunity to present to the sponsors from their organisation giving the chance to showcase the ROI in terms of their learning as well as to raise their profile with market leaders from across the industry.

Upon completion of the programme, all members will remain part of a wider IBC network, with an additional 12 months access to all content via the membership and alumni networking events. They will also be welcome to join us at future IBC cohort events (subject to numbers) and encouraged to stay involved as a mentor to the next group.
