What is Bupa
Connected Careers?

Bupa's Connected Careers is an ambition and core part of our People Strategy, designed to enable and empower employees to grow, explore, and thrive across Bupa’s global business.

It’s a people-first approach that aligns individual aspirations with the needs of our organisation, encouraging cross-functional collaboration, internal mobility, and international opportunities.

Our Connected Careers Programmes

We’re committed to helping you learn, thrive, and shape a future you’re proud of. 

When you join Bupa, you're joining a global organisation of over 100,000 colleagues around the world. Our size and scale provides you with huge internal and global opportunity.  

Explore what Bupa has to offer and discover what opportunities you could take part in working for Bupa.

Horizon

The Horizon programme lets our people experience work in an entirely new country from 6 weeks and up to 6 months.

It's designed to grow careers, mobilise talent across Bupa - both domestically and internationally - and support the delivery of our ambition.

Through meaningful international assignments and local opportunities, Horizon drives career development and empowers our people to thrive. 

Study Tours

There’s something powerful about stepping into someone else’s world – seeing what they see, hearing their stories, and understanding their challenges first hand. That’s exactly what our Study Tours are all about.

Why study in one location when you can study in multiple. Study tours let you take a tour of our business, gaining new skills and knowledge along the way.

Bupa Match

A mentoring community helping our people connect through the power of collaboration, knowledge-sharing and career development.

Whether you’re looking to grow your career, share your expertise, or find inspiration, Bupa Match connects you with the right mentor or mentee to help build confidence, unlock potential, and develop meaningful connections across our business. 

 

Clinical Exchange

Driving clinical excellence through the exchange of Nursing talent.

Picture yourself walking into a care home on the other side of the world - meeting new colleagues, learning fresh ways of working, and discovering ideas that could shape your career for years to come.

That’s exactly what our Clinical Exchange programme is all about offering registered nurses from Bupa Aged Care Australia and our UK Care Services the opportunity to take part in a 6-week international clinical exchange - a one-of-a-kind opportunity to grow, connect, and learn.
