You will join as part of the Investment

Schroders is a global investment manager which provides active asset management, wealth management and investment solutions. We aim to provide excellent investment performance to clients through active management. We serve a diverse client base that includes pension schemes, insurance companies, sovereign wealth funds, endowments, foundations, high net worth individuals, family offices, as well as end clients through partnerships with distributors, financial advisers, and online platforms.

Established in 1804, we have around 5,500 people across 36 global locations. Schroders' success can be attributed to its diversified business model, spanning different asset classes, client types and geographies.

Our 2027 Summer Internship Programme runs for 10 weeks, starting on Monday 14 June 2027 and finishing on Friday 20 August 2027. This internship is designed to give you a unique introduction to the asset and wealth management industry and offers valuable insight into how your chosen department operates within Schroders.

Throughout the programme you will:

• Take part in comprehensive introductory training to build your understanding of the business
• Be assigned to a team where you will contribute to live projects and gain meaningful hands‑on experience
• Shadow experienced professionals and learn directly from leaders in the field
• Have opportunities to network with colleagues and other interns, helping you build connections for your future career

This internship provides practical experience, skill development, and a strong foundation for those interested in pursuing a career in the asset and wealth management industry.

• Good attention to detail and commitment to producing high‑quality work
• Comfortable using Excel, PowerPoint and Word, with willingness to develop technical and AI skills further
• Interested in developing a long‑term career in Finance

Our Finance function is central to delivering the firm’s strategic objectives and driving sustainable, profitable growth. The team provides vital financial insights, supports well‑informed decision‑making, and ensures strong financial and regulatory…
