I am Marta, the recruiter for this role. I love the fall, to travel and read. Lovely to meet you

Perhaps this is the 10th Job Description you read today, sitting on your couch with Netflix playing in the background, or contemplating your life planning to refresh your career. I am sure by now all offers look the same.

We focus our efforts in helping youths in risk of social marginalization and fighting climate change by reforesting parks or woods in Madrid and in the Doñana Forest. In 2024, we did more than 20,000 hours of activism.
- At Zurich we say it loud and clear: We are proud of our colors; we believe that a diverse and inclusive team makes the difference. We don’t discuss disability, we discuss capability **We want you to be yourself**, without closets in between or glass ceilings making you fragile. 50% of our high responsibility positions are occupied by women (including our Executive Committee). Do you know that we produce our own podcasts about gender identity? We are building a company where everyone is welcome

**At this point you might be asking yourself: Marta, how will be my day to day wearing the blue sweater? I asked that question too.**
