About the Global Banking Apprenticeship Program

UBS's Apprenticeship program provides ambitious and talented individuals with an alternative route to a career in financial services. You'll earn a salary working in the exciting and fast-paced environment of investment banking, whilst completing training for a recognised qualification offering a fee-free on-the-job education alternative to the traditional university route.

Our apprentices will assist the teams in day-to-day operational running of the desk, which could include a range of tasks from maintaining a repository of client marketing slides, sourcing key information to contribute to roadshow planning and helping update regular market reports, seeing that there is consistency of messaging and content delivery to clients across Global Banking.
