About you

Candidates should have a strong academic record and although a background in finance, economics or accounting is a plus, they will hire interns who have studied across a variety of disciplines.

This is an exciting opportunity for STEM students or women studying a degree in finance to immerse themselves in the finance sector and learn about investment banking.
