We are looking for innovative under-graduates to join our 2022 Internship Programme within our Investment division.

The department

Our investment teams support our overall purpose to help build the long-term future prosperity of our clients by managing investments for institutions and people to help them meet their financial goals and prepare for the future.

We offer innovative products and solutions across a wide range of asset classes, including Equities, Fixed income, Multi-asset, Private Assets and Alternatives.

By combining deep client relationships with market insights and our strong investment capabilities, we can design bespoke products and services. Using a combination of fundamental research and data-guided insights, we construct solutions that meet our clients changing needs.

Our 42 investment teams in 19 global locations actively manage investments across a range of asset classes. Our approach allows us to channel our insights into the right outcomes for our clients.

The programme

Our 2022 Summer Internship Programme starts on Monday 20 June 2022 and runs for 8 weeks ending on Friday 12 August 2022.

During your internship you will be assigned to an investment team in either Equities, Private Asset, Fixed Income or Multi-Asset where you'll have the opportunity to work on research projects, shadow senior executives and learn from some of the best in the industry.

Regardless of which team you join, our job is to outperform others in the industry by using our teams of specialists and portfolio managers to generate research ideas and contribute to our investment choices.

Our goals are aligned with those of our clients – the creation of long-term value so we want a talented, creative and diverse team. The more different ideas we have, the more likely we are to succeed.
