Your program

This apprenticeship will last four years. You'll work with our experts and learn about the industry, our clients and our firm. You'll be right at the heart of our business, learning from your colleagues, taking part in day-to-day operations.

You'll have plenty of opportunities to develop new skills and make contacts along the way. If you like challenges, enjoy learning and want to work where no two days are the same, this program is for you.

You'll begin with a Level 4 Investment Operations Specialist apprenticeship and move onto a Level 6 Financial Services Professional apprenticeship.
It includes a Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) Level 1 and/or Chartered Banker Institute (CBI) qualification, which culminates in a BSc (Honours) Applied Finance degree.
