Spend your summer solving genuine commercial problems

This isn’t an internship built around shadowing or administration. You’ll join a core Strategy team and take ownership of a genuine business project from the beginning.

You’ll use data, analytical thinking and commercial judgement to investigate a problem, develop recommendations and present your findings to the business.

You could be involved in:

• Analysing customer and commercial data
• Identifying ways to improve products and services
• Exploring how to attract and engage new customers
• Supporting responsible commercial and risk decisions
• Developing customer, marketing or fraud-prevention strategies
• Learning how analytical and coding tools are used within financial services
• Presenting your final recommendations to colleagues and stakeholders

You’ll receive structured training and support from a manager, mentor and buddy throughout the programme.

What we’re looking for

You don’t need previous finance experience or a particular degree. You should be able to demonstrate:

• Strong numerical and analytical thinking
• Curiosity and an interest in solving complex problems
• The confidence to form and communicate recommendations
• Good written and verbal communication
• Sound judgement and attention to detail
• A collaborative approach and willingness to learn

Applications are welcomed from everyone. Women and candidates from groups underrepresented within strategy and financial services are particularly encouraged to apply.
