What You’ll Do

Your HSBC journey will be built upon - and thrive with - your skills.

We know how important it is to have the right skills, both for your future and ours. By building this skillset now, we’ll help you develop the agility to keep learning new skills throughout your career.

Over the course of ten weeks, you’ll get to:

• Explore how we connect entrepreneurial businesses to opportunities with the help of our Relationship Managers and digital capabilities
• Work with Relationship Managers and their teams to help small enterprises expand domestically, and larger organisations achieve their international goals
• Complete a business-related project on your own or with other interns. This could involve looking at sustainability ideas to support our business, helping our team and Relationship Managers deliver growth, or suggesting process improvements that make life better for our customers and employees
• The project will form part of the assessment at the end of your internship. Those who excel will be considered for our Commercial Banking Graduate Programme, where you will have the opportunity to build an international network and collaborate with clients in developed and developing markets

What You’ll Learn

We’ll help you develop the technical skills most relevant to your role. We’ll also provide plenty of opportunities to advance your non-technical skills, like relationship management and collaboration, that will help you move your career forward successfully.

Join us on this programme, and you’ll benefit from:

• An overview of our Commercial Bank and insights from other grads and employees working in a variety of specialised areas
• Valuable training in personal branding, networking and relationship building
• Unlimited access to LinkedIn Learning and Fit for Banking modules, as well as your own bespoke development pathway on Degreed
• Invitations to our Global Speaker Series where you’ll connect with other interns and senior executives so you can start building your global network
