Rothschild’s Graduate Training Programme provides state-of-the-art technical training and awareness of our business activities. It also gives extensive exposure to senior management, both individually and in team situations.

On joining the Graduate Programme in August, UK graduates and other new graduates from our offices around Europe and the world will start a comprehensive four-month training programme based in London. The first six weeks are spent in formal ‘classroom’ training, with subjects including financial analysis, investment and funding, valuation, practical aspects of investment banking and debt capital markets, as well as introductions to the financial markets and law.

You will also spend short placements in the following business areas:

· M & A (Investment Banking)

· Debt Capital Markets (Banking)

· Equity Capital Markets (Investment Banking)

During your time in these business areas, you will be seconded to different teams and become involved in live work. This will give you the chance to gain invaluable hands-on experience; and the opportunity to decide on the type of work and team environment that best suits you and your career aspirations. At Rothschild, teamwork and excellence are at the heart of our culture and you will be expected to make a contribution from the start.
