This is our third consecutive year with Barclays Capital and we are delighted to receive their continuous support

The Firm

Globally, Barclays Capital has offices in 29 countries and over 16,200 employees.

Available Opportunities

Full-Time Opportunities Our graduate programme is key to success and is supported by senior management throughout the organisation. On the programme, graduates are provided with an excellent understanding of financial markets, as well as the bank’s products, instruments and services. This creates a strong platform on which to build more specialised expertise. The programme takes learning one step further, incorporating practical applications through a variety of case studies, workshops and presentations. Depending on the area joined, each graduate receives comprehensive, role-specific training as well as training in soft skills. Barclays Capital also encourages people to obtain appropriate professional qualifications. And that’s just the beginning. Internship Opportunities Most internships take place for 10-12 weeks over the summer although we do have off-cycle positions available, according to business needs. The first week is spent in training, covering financial products, the Barclays Capital business model, IT, presentation skills and Bloomberg before joining the desk. Interns are expected to work on a range of projects, from live transactions and marketing projects, to research and analysis, depending on the business area. Informal training continues throughout the programme in a weekly speaker series, providing a broader knowledge of the firm and the activities of individual businesses. As well as the everyday work, interns are allocated buddies and also have a lot of opportunities to socialise and network with intern colleagues, recent graduates and senior members of the firm.
