Finance at Barclays

As a bank, it’s hardly surprising that numbers matter to us. But it’s what we do with financial data that makes the role of Finance teams so central. The better we understand the numbers, the better our decisions — and our performance — will be.

Our Finance teams lead the way in collecting, managing and interpreting that data. Finance (including Treasury) oversees financial control, reporting and forecasting, as well as product control. We monitor budgets and provide the business with accurate, high-quality management and financial information. So you’ll be part of truly bank-wide team that makes us competitive on a global scale. You won’t just learn to interpret figures, you’ll also play a crucial role as a business manager, helping us to drive strategy and keeping our business on track.

Who can apply?

You'll need to be 2 years out from graduation and can be studying any degree discipline.

Beyond that, you'll need to be curious to understand how a global bank adapts in a constantly evolving environment.

We are recruiting on a rolling basis, so we recommend that students apply early.

Barclays does not provide sponsorship for the 2-day insight programme, and Barclays will also require applicants for this position to have legal right to work in the UK for the duration of the 2026 Summer Internship Programme.

Working in Glasgow

Whilst our Discovery Programme is virtual, if successful in securing a place on our 2026 internship programme, you'll be based in Glasgow.

Our brand new state-of-the-art campus in Glasgow is somewhere you'll want to work. It's the home of a team of 5,500 colleagues who thrive in an environment that's designed with collaboration and the future of work in mind. The campus is made up of creative spaces and technology with hybrid working opportunities at the heart. The campus is inclusive to all, with a specific focus on neurodiversity through our partnership with Scottish Autism.

As well as offering the perfect space for collaborative working, there's also plenty to get involved in outside of your day job. From live music in the canteen, a rooftop bar that overlooks the Clyde for meeting up with colleagues after hours and even an on-site beekeeping club.
