Invesco is proud to be a part of the Investment 2020 initiative, and we are delighted to invite you to apply for a 12 month placement with us, starting on 20th September 2021. Our culture of collaboration and inclusion makes Invesco a phenomenal place to work and reflects the broad diversity of thought across our organisation. We offer entry level work experiences that will inspire and challenge you!
These are traineeships, so we are specifically looking for results-oriented and motivated school leavers or graduates who are interested in a career in Compliance.
Here’s a bit more information about the team
The Compliance function plays a key role within investment management firms, with responsibility for identifying, assessing, monitoring and reporting on the firm’s compliance risks. The Investment Advisory team provides advice to management on compliance rules and standards, keeping them abreast of developments and obligations under the regulatory system.
Your Role
Interested in getting involved? You could expect to be assisting with the compliance monitoring process, including risk assessment and report production, as well as reviewing material from regulators, industry associations and internal colleagues. Even if you’ve never considered a career in Compliance, we’ll provide all the training you need, both internally and externally.
You’ll need phenomenal relationship building skills for this role, with the ability to deal with people across the organization, as well as a high attention to detail, a willingness to learn and you'll be capable of working both independently and as part of our diverse and successful team.
How to Apply
Whilst a CV is important, we’d like to get to know you as more than just a name on a piece of paper. As well as attaching your CV, we’d like you to address a few questions that are important to us in a Word or PDF document:
- What interests you about Compliance?
- How do you think Compliance contributes to the overall success of an investment management firm?
- Tell us about a particularly challenging situation you’ve faced personally and what you’ve learnt from this
- What would you like to achieve in your career and how can this placement help you get there?
- What has your work experience and/or education taught you so far about yourself?
- What is your proudest achievement?
This gives you a great opportunity to shine, and helps us better understand your motivations! Unfortunately, we will not be able to consider your application without this submission.
