We are looking for forward-thinking, driven and perceptive undergraduates to join our Summer Internships and ultimately our global Graduate Programme.
Retail Banking & Wealth Management Summer Internship
During this eight-week rotational Summer Internship you’ll get first-hand experience of serving our personal customers in Retail Banking and Wealth Management. You’ll gain an understanding of the range and complexity of our Retail Banking business and see how your skills fit.
Supported throughout by a line manager and buddy, you’ll also have the opportunity to build your network and be part of a charity project, and on completion you could secure a place on our RBWM Graduate Programme.
