• Partner Crowd

Curated communities of key Zurich partners who provide unique, specialized services. This can include work that requires co-location, physical access to systems, and/or specific knowledge of industry, customer, and/or process.

• The Zurich Internal Crowd

Nobody knows Zurich like Zurich. The Zurich Internal Crowd enables Zurich employees to leverage their own unique skills & knowledge across the company, driving greater impact, learning, engagement and efficiency. Grow your career with a new way of working and help shape the Zurich of tomorrow.

• Capability Crowd

Designed to provide you the deepest on-demand pool of hard-to-find skills anywhere. Capability Crowds consolidate specific skillsets (Strategic Assets) from across the Public, Partner and Zurich Crowds, in collaboration with strategic technology providers. The result? Specialized ‘crowds of crowds’ at your fingertips.
