Our Sales and Trading team works in a fast-paced, dynamic and exciting environment, quickly processing information and anticipating market trends to help clients make their next move. Sound like the place for you? Find out when you join us as a summer analyst.

The chance to make an impact

As a summer analyst, you’ll spend the summer learning about the market as well as Barclays’ global businesses, products and services. You will complete three rotations on different Sales and Trading desks across the following areas:

  • financial resource management
  • client strategy
  • credit
  • equities
  • equity financing
  • foreign exchange
  • rates
  • structuring
  • securitised products
Through your desk assignments, you’ll develop a solid understanding of the global markets, building your communication, quantitative and analytical skills. You may:

  • research industries or products, reporting summary information to your team
  • monitor markets and help formulate trade ideas
  • perform various analyses on fundamental and technical data
  • attend client meetings or calls with traders, salespeople and research colleagues.

A place where you can thrive

At Barclays, you’ll be surrounded by people who will help you achieve your ambitions. Our collaborative, supportive environment gives you the chance to build solid relationships with senior leaders and peers alike. During the programme, you will:
