Do you want to help our clients buy and sell equities, foreign currencies, interest rates and credit? On our off cycle internship you’ll get exposure to Sales and gain first hand experience.
In Sales you’ll:

– help our clients buy and sell on the phone and using our online systems
– choose whether to be on a client team, a sales trader
– (on a client team) be promoting products and trading opportunities to clients based on an in-depth understanding of their needs and investment styles

Your team

Diversity helps us grow, together. That’s why we are committed to fostering and advancing diversity, equity, and inclusion. It strengthens our business and brings value to our clients.

Your expertise

You need to be in the last year of your degree, or recently graduated, no more than 6 months from the start date. In addition you need to have or be on track for a 2:1 or the equivalent in your first undergraduate degree. It doesn’t matter what you’re studying. (Really, it doesn’t.) But we’d like to see evidence that you can:
– analyze a problem, take a view and come to a decision
– plan, organize and communicate well
– make things happen
– stick with a task
– work in a team
– come up with ideas

Perhaps you’ve organized a fundraising event or taken part in team sports? Or persevered and passed an exam in a subject you found challenging? Think about how things you’ve achieved match the skills we’re after.

Your Program

On this 6-12 month program, you’ll be a real part of the team, working with our experts and learning about the industry, our clients, our firm and a specific area of it. You’ll have plenty of opportunities to develop new skills and make contacts. And if you impress us, we might invite you to join our Graduate Talent Program once you have finished.
