The Apprenticeship Programme, offered over a duration of 12 or 24 months, is designed to provide participants with meaningful responsibilities and valuable hands-on experience from the outset.
You won’t just observe how a global bank operates – you’ll help power it. In Technology and Operations, you sit at the heart of how we deliver for our clients each day.

• Build technical, analytical and problem-solving skills
• Develop confidence working with data, systems and processes
• Learn how risk, controls and governance protect a global bank
• Strengthen your communication and stakeholder management skills
