Business Management Summer Internship 2023 - Surrey and London, UK

Who we are:

 We’ve been helping clients plan and invest for their futures for over 50 years. From more than 25 locations around the world, we provide investment services and retirement expertise to everyone from central banks to private individuals.

 We’re known for acting with integrity and thinking for the long-term. And across our organisation, we foster a welcoming, caring and inclusive culture where people feel respected, trusted and able to be themselves.

 The Team you’ll join:

  We don’t expect you to come straight in and know everything about what we do.

 As an intern, and whatever you’re studying, we’ll help make sure you get the most out of your time with us. Fidelity is a fantastic place to learn, innovate and grow. There are expert colleagues around the world to learn from and share ideas with.

The Workplace and Personal Financial Health (WPFH) business ensures that we bring our global scale and knowledge together so that we connect our distribution businesses globally, while remaining sensitive to regional and local requirements.

During the 10 week summer programme, you’ll be work in one of the businesses below:

• Workplace Investing: Working strategically to extend our footprint into new markets, developing new customer delivery models, driving efficiencies in our operating models for existing markets.
• Personal Investing: Supporting and guiding our clients to achieve their financial goals.
• COO - Business Change: Identifying and implementing quality change with strong risk management.

Please note, you could be placed in either our London or Surrey office. 

 The difference you’ll make: 

You’ll contribute to positive, meaningful work that make a difference to our clients. You’ll help them invest and plan for the futures they want. You’ll provide invaluable support to your team, too.

How you’ll be supported:

 You’ll start with a welcome and an orientation, where you’ll meet your fellow interns and find out all about us and our work. Once the programme begins, you’ll learn every day – from the experts around you and through tackling real projects. Our focus will be on supporting you to gain experience and discover what kind of future you could build in our industry.

Support is part of our culture, so you’ll have a buddy and a mentor to help you whenever you need. And you’ll join a close-knit early careers community, with plenty of social and networking events to help you find your feet and feel at home.

 What we look for:

 It’s who you are that matters here, rather than what you studied.

We look for interns who are analytical, eager to learn and ready to take on a challenge. A genuine curiosity and eagerness to learn about investment is vital, as is a lively interest in our work and our industry. Creative thinking and attention to detail are important too.

And, as we’re an international organisation, we’ll need you to speak English.

 We’ll also need you to:

• be graduating in 2024 (Bachelor’s or Master’s degree)
• have the right to work in the UK at point of application. If you are currently on a Tier 4 / Student Visa, this means you have the right to work in the UK
• be happy to work in either our London or Surrey office

 Our clients come from all walks of life and so do we.  We are proud of our inclusive culture and encourage applications from the widest mix of talent, whatever your age, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity, social background and more.
