Schroders Graduate Programme

Schroders Graduate Programme

Who we are
Schroders is a truly global asset management company. We manage £194.6 billion* on behalf of institutional and retail investors, financial institutions and high net worth clients from around the world, invested in a broad range of asset classes across equities, fixed income, multi-asset and alternatives. We employ over 2,950 talented people worldwide as at 30 June 2012, operating from 33 offices in 26 different countries across Europe, the Americas, Asia and the Middle East, close to the markets in which we invest and close to our clients.

Why Schroders
As a graduate, you'll be empowered to make your own career decisions and given the freedom to thrive in a meritocratic environment. We'll begin by providing both financial support and generous study leave to help you gain professional qualifications. All graduates will undertake the Investment Management Certificate (IMC) during the induction programme. Investment graduates will then continue by studying for the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) qualification, while Finance graduates will work towards the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA) qualification. Distribution, IT and HR graduates will be encouraged to pursue qualifications which are relevant to their roles.

Our dedicated Learning and Development team will ensure you have the support to continuously develop your skills and knowledge and you'll also be encouraged to move forwards within Schroders and take advantage of our international mobility opportunities.
Opportunities: Graduate and Summer Internships opportunities for 2013, in Investment, Distribution (Sales and Marketing), Finance, Human Resources, Property, Legal, IT and Private Banking.

What we are looking for
In academic terms, we are looking for people who are on course for a 1st or 2:1 in any discipline. However, your personal qualities are equally important. Schroders' working culture is built around passion, innovation, integrity, excellence and teamwork and we look to our graduate trainees to reflect these values in everything they do.
