At BlackRock, we are all connected by one mission: to help more and more people experience financial well- being. Our clients, and the people they serve, are saving for retirement, paying for their children’s educations, buying homes and starting businesses. Their investments also help to strengthen the global economy: support businesses small and large; finance infrastructure projects that connect and power cities; and facilitate innovations that drive progress.
This mission would not be possible without our smartest investment – the one we make in our employees. It’s why we’re dedicated to creating an environment where our colleagues feel welcomed, valued and supported with networks, benefits and development opportunities to help them thrive.
Technology at Blackrock
We innovate to solve some of the world's most complex financial challenges and turn data into meaningful insights for our clients. Our breakthrough Aladdin platform unifies trading, risk management and reporting into one system connecting the information, people and technology needed to manage money. At BlackRock, we are building the investment technology platform of the future.
Women in Fintech Insight Event
Our Women in Fintech Insight Event is designed to provide female students with an interest in technology the opportunity to get a taster into the world’s largest asset manager and our evolving technology landscape. You’ll learn how we reinvent the client experience, re-imagine how data flows across the organisation and integrate technology into investment decision-making. Participants will engage in talks, workshops, and networking events to gain the skills and knowledge necessary to build a fulfilling career.
You will also learn more about the opportunities available in Technology and Operations businesses on our 2025 Analyst Program and Summer Internship Program.
This event will take place in our Edinburgh offices on Monday 21st and Tuesday 22nd October 2024. Participants selected for the insight event must be available during both days. Travel and accommodation will be provided for participants located outside of Edinburgh.
