On our Finance Graduate Scheme, you will gain experience in a variety of roles including for example:
You may have an idea of what area of finance you’d like to specialise in, or you may not. Either way, our graduate programme will help you achieve your potential. You’ll also work towards a recognised accounting qualification: you can choose to study either CIMA or ACCA, with study support.
Through working in Finance, you will have great oversight of an interesting regulated and growing business. We’re looking for someone who wants to build their career with us and grasp new opportunities – helping us to transition Britain to clean energy. In return, we’ll support you with varied experiences, training, and development to provide a great platform for your future Finance career.
This three-year programme will give you a solid foundation to build a successful career in Finance. With an accounting qualification, you’ll be well-equipped to explore a variety of roles - from operational finance and management accounting to more commercial areas like Finance Business Partnering or work towards specialist fields such as Treasury and Tax.
You’ll need to be a good communicator and be able to engage with people at every level. An interest in Finance and strong numerical ability is a must, but even more important is your personability, passion and drive to succeed.
We're looking for individuals who are on track to achieve, or have achieved, a 2:1 degree or above in any STEM discipline.
Possessing a strong numerical and analytical ability, outstanding communication skills, and a team-oriented mindset are important, but it’s your personality, passion for finance, and ambition to develop and succeed that will set you apart.
A good application will include a cover letter to help us to understand why you're a great fit for the role. Be sure to include any other relevant experience or university modules.
