Mizuho is not your typical financial institution.
We offer a fantastic opportunity to gain experience within a global investment bank, working on real projects, whilst developing a strong professional network within a bank that prides itself on its inclusive, cooperative and friendly company culture.
We offer the best of both worlds – the feeling of a boutique work environment within a global organisation. Our steady growth in EMEA gives our people at all levels rewarding degrees of responsibility and a richer work experience than a small firm or an established giant could offer alone.
What will I be doing?
Over 10 weeks, you’ll gain hands-on experience within one of our Banking teams, working alongside experienced professionals and supporting real business activities. You’ll have the opportunity to:
- Conduct company, industry and market research
- Assist with financial, credit and business analysis
- Support the preparation of client presentations, reports and marketing materials
- Contribute to financing, advisory and capital markets transactions
- Assist with portfolio monitoring, reporting and business activities
- Support strategic projects, process improvement initiatives and operational activities
- Work collaboratively with colleagues across Banking and the wider organisation
Throughout the programme, interns will follow a structured learning and development curriculum covering technical skills, commercial awareness and professional skills. Cross-team learning will provide broad insight into the different areas of Banking at Mizuho.
What can we offer you?
- Real-World Experience: Work on real business activities and gain first-hand experience within a global investment bank.
- Personalised Guidance & Mentorship: One-on-one guidance from experienced market professionals.
- Comprehensive Training: Technical training and tailored soft skills sessions designed to help you thrive in a professional environment.
- Buddy System: A directed peer mentor to support you throughout your internship

- Highly competitive salary, in line with salaries offered by other London Corporate Investment Banks.
