Work with the companies everyone else talks about

At Lloyds Banking Group, we serve some of the largest corporate and institutional clients with strong UK ties. We’re talking big. Really big. Generally, those with a turnover above £500m.

Think finance isn’t for you? Think again.
From cracking code to crunching data, from finance to green ideas, this is where you get to change up the status quo.

Our teams in the UK and the USA are their go-to for funding big infrastructure, backing major housing and manufacturing projects, supporting higher education and regional development, and helping them navigate the fast-changing world of finance.

We’re experts in transaction banking, debt financing, risk management and ESG advisory. And right now, we’re investing in new products, digital trade solutions and capital markets growth - all while improving our client experience and building innovative offerings that help our customers make responsible, sustainable choices.

  • Learn directly from relationship managers, traders and product specialists.
  • Join your fellow interns in running events, from client networking to socials that bring the team together.
