What you’ll do at work

What to Expect

The Apprenticeship Programme is designed to help those with no experience of working in finance and provide the opportunity to embark on a structured learning journey resulting in a professional qualification. If you have a strong work ethic, are intellectually curious, and work well in a team, you will love working for us.

As a part of our two-year Apprenticeship programme, you will be studying towards a level 3 Data Foundation qualification.

Apprentices in the EMEA Internal Audit (EIA) Data Analytics team are responsible for supporting the team in the execution and delivery of audit engagements. This will involve designing and developing ways to automate and reimagine audits and develop audit solutions by implementing innovative technologies. You will build a strong understanding for the role that data and analytics play in modern-day audit.

Specifically, key responsibilities of the Apprentice role within the EIA Data Analytics team will include assisting the team on the following:

  • Data management, including data extraction and data cleansing processes.
  • Analytics and reporting, including visualisation of data to help the organisation establish and manage the right processes, risks and controls to improve decision-making.
  • Support in advanced analytics, where we use data science techniques to help the organisation navigate future risks and opportunities through predictive and prescriptive analytics.
  • Keeping the team and Senior Managers informed of the progress made on work assigned.
  • Developing knowledge of the portfolios covered by Internal Audit, and the organisation.
  • Building and maintaining a ‘trusted advisor’ relationship with stakeholders within audit engagements.
  • Developing an appreciation of data analysis and management, and act as one of the drivers for a successful risk and control culture.
  • Working collaboratively with Internal Audit colleagues regionally and globally.

By doing the above you will be able to learn about how a bank operates, the different businesses within the organisation, and the key risks that financial institutions are exposed to; you will build a sound foundation of the financial services industry. Furthermore, you have the opportunity to study towards a qualification alongside working to develop technical knowledge in the field that you are interested in.

As a part of a select intake, you will have the opportunity to learn from some of the best professionals in the industry. We’re highly team-driven, but you’ll still find plenty of opportunity to shine as an individual. In our open and inclusive environment, senior colleagues will know who you are and will see the work you do. In addition, your buddy and mentor will make sure you have all the support you need to succeed. And you’ll enjoy an ongoing commitment to your development as you build a lasting and rewarding career with us.
