Butterfield launches Graduate Talent Programme

Monday 27 June 2022

Butterfield has announced it is now accepting applications for its new Graduate Talent Programme.

The bank and wealth management company said the programme is distinct in accepting applications from candidates who have work experience in place of a bachelor’s degree.

The structured two-year programme, which begins in September 2022, will see two successful applicants progress their careers in the financial services industry with full-time roles at Butterfield. The positions are competitively salaried with benefits. 

The successful applicants will rotate and spend time in key business areas including banking, compliance and risk, asset management and trust, to gain practical experience and develop technical knowledge. They will also have an opportunity to embark upon an industry accredited qualification. 

Each individual will work closely with experienced professionals and will be assigned a dedicated mentor to provide guidance together with a personal development plan to set them up for future success.

Head of Human Resources, Andrew Burns, said the company was delighted to launch the scheme. 

“This programme is part of our ongoing commitment to develop the next generation of talented employees, building on our summer internship programme and undergraduate scholarships,” he said.

“We recognise that there are many routes to success and our selection for this programme is based on more than just academics alone. Competence, motivation, leadership potential and an alignment with our core values is as important, if not more so. 

“At the end of the two years, our aim is for the successful applicants to grow into a permanent position within the business in an area that is a best fit for them. I encourage all eligible candidates to apply.”

The application deadline is 31 July 2022.
