Our Technology Summer Internship Programme has been crafted to simulate our Technology Graduate Programme so that you can understand what a career in technology at LSEG would really be like.
To be eligible, you must be a penultimate year undergraduate or studying a Masters during 2023/24 due to complete your degree by September 2024.
You should have a predicted 2:1 degree or equivalent in a ‘STEM’ subject (science, technology, engineering or mathematics).
During your time with us you will have the opportunity to explore potential careers paths by working within our Post Trade Technology division. Roles can vary from development and programming to business analysis and tech project management, we seek to match your interests, skills and background to the roles available.
We will also support you in discovering more about the areas of LSEG that interest you most by connecting you with the relevant departments so that you can learn more about them. All the while you will be applying your new skills to real world business challenges
These are real roles; as a summer intern, you play a part in the success of our organisation, just like you would do as a graduate.
What we are looking for:
We are passionate about recruiting people who are interested in pursuing a career within Technology and would like to learn about the full breadth of our business – and are interested in playing a part of our development, as it grows and diversifies.
You will have an interest in technology demonstrated either via your work experience, extracurricular activities or academic studies. For instance, you may be part of a Computing Society, have taught yourself how to code or have focused on technology as part of a university project.
You should be interested in financial markets and how technology supports our business.
A curiosity for data and an ability to analyse information to draw conclusions and propose solutions.
Individuals who are able to connect the dots and think creatively.
The environment we work in is fast paced, you’ll need to demonstrate focus, resilience and the flexibility to adapt to changing demands.
People who can collaborate with others, using their strong communication skills in the process.
You will stand out to us if you can demonstrate and recognise that what you achieve is equally important to how you achieve it.
Application end date: midnight on the 6 March 2023
