What you’ll do at work

You’ll complete five, year-long placements in different areas of finance, giving you an unrivalled breadth of experience.

One placement will be in a specialist area, such as Group Finance, Treasury, Tax or Internal Audit. On each placement, you’ll be responsible for completing core tasks and supporting teams across our business. This will give you a solid understanding of the fundamentals of finance and a strong foundation on which to build an amazing career.
