We are a FTSE 100 global company with a long and successful history and approx 1.5 million shareholders worldwide. All sounds the same as the rest so far. But if you come to Standard Life, we really want you to be able to build a career here. We don’t employ huge numbers onto our summer internships or graduate programme.
