Getting qualified. It's a huge achievement that can completely change your prospects – but it’s not always open to everyone, whether that's due to the cost of university or the timing not being right. But with our Higher Apprenticeship, all that can change. Here at Barclays we offer a world-class programme that provides you with a permanent, full-time job with a competitive salary from day one - all whilst gaining a professional qualification at the same time. Whether you're a school-leaver looking for alternative options to the traditional education route or you're someone thinking differently about your future, we'll help you to build an extraordinary career at Barclays, no matter your background.
Why a Barclays Apprenticeship?
You’ll get the opportunity to earn while you learn, a perfect blend of theoretical learning and real-life practical work whilst on a full-time salary in a permanent job. A unique chance to get a professional qualification without the student loan, all whilst getting years of work experience under your belt.
We’ve spent 11 years perfecting the support that you’ll receive on our Apprenticeship programme. That starts with our market-leading Talent Coach model: from day one, you’ll be assigned a talent coach matched to your needs and background, and together with your line manager, they’ll support you as an individual. We’ll also match you to an expert in your specialist subject, ready to share their knowledge.
The Apprenticeship route gives you the opportunity for self-discovery and helps you to explore different career paths. With over 325 years of expertise in Banking, Barclays operates in over 40 countries, employing over 80,000 people to help move, lend, invest and protect money for customers and clients worldwide. Giving you endless opportunities to network and discover what makes you tick.
Our programme is open to anyone, no matter your background or your age. Soyou’ll be joining an Apprenticeship cohort who are from all different walks of life, whether that’s school leavers starting their career, ex-military wanting to kick-start a career in the corporate world to parents wanting to return to work after having time off.
Internal Audit at Barclays
Internal Audit is an independent control function that’s critical to our business right around the world. You'll join a team that provides independent, reliable, insightful and timely assurance to the whole business about effective governance, risk management and how we can control current and evolving risks. We’ve built a reputation across financial services for our innovative thinking and approach — and we want you to get involved in thinking about how we can drive change whilst our global management team help support your career development.
Are you eligible?
First, you’ll need the right qualifications. For the Internal Audit Apprenticeship in Scotlandyou'll need 2 A levels(or equivalent).
Beyond that though, we’re also looking for commitment and enthusiasm. Our Apprenticeships place deep investment in you as an individual. That means we need you to match that commitment: you’ll turn up every day ready to work hard, push yourself, and think differently about what you’re capable of. You’ll have the backing of a global bank, and you’ll rise to that expectation.
Working in Northampton
Northampton is a key strategic hub, and home to a community of over 3,000 talented people. Our team is behind global business developments such as fraud leveraging machine learning, and redesigning technology for the contact centre of the future. With so much happening, it’s the ideal place for a diverse career path.
