Company Company profile

Right place. Right time.

RBS is undergoing one of the biggest transformations ever seen. We’re building a new bank. One that will be safer, stronger and profitable for years to come. The changes we’re making are unprecedented, but so too are the opportunities. Now more than ever, our future will be shaped by new talent.

That’s why we’re hiring more graduates than ever before. Over the next 12 months, we’ll be recruiting a record number of graduates and interns, from a variety of disciplines, into more than 30 different programmes. It’s an exciting time to join us.

Our programmes encompass everything from Risk and Technology to Private Banking and Corporate Finance. We also offer a number of intern programmes, which are a great way to gain an insight into the world of banking. As well as providing valuable work experience, an intern programme could also help you secure a place on our graduate programme in the future.

Support for graduates will be provided via a network of buddies and mentors as well as through a first-class development programme. There will also be the opportunity to study for professional qualifications.

To apply, please visit our website and complete a short application form. The next stage of the selection process varies depending on which programme you’ve applied for, but follows a broadly similar format of psychometric tests, structured competency and technical interviews with RBS’s business representatives, and assessment centres.

It’s a defining moment for us. It could be for you too.

The place is here. The time is now.

Case studies

  • Name: Selina Tindall
  • Role: GBM Technology Programme
  • Joined: Summer 2010

One of the main reasons I joined RBS was because of the diversity of the scheme and so far it’s lived up to my expectations, my two rotations have been completely different. I enjoy the challenging and changing workload but I’ve also been pleasantly surprised by the very sociable and friendly teams and working atmosphere.

Training & profiles

GBM TECHNOLOGY
GRADUATE AND INTERN CAREERS

Operating across five continents, we provide the technological infrastructure and develop state-of-the-art tools for all parts of the business. We use the latest programming languages and technologies to create bespoke solutions and collaborate closely with other departments to ensure these solutions are aligned to clients' needs.

Graduates who join this programme are allocated to different product areas. Once assigned, you'll undertake two rotations: one in the front office and one in the back office. This will give you a broad understanding of financial markets, projects and product styles. Whether you are developing or supporting an application, you can expect to be building, integrating and delivering solutions for a specific business.

You will need a 2:1 from any degree discipline as technical skills are not essential, however, those who demonstrate a keen interest in both finance and technology will have a distinct advantage.
