Operations

Operations roles in Investment Banking have evolved significantly over the last 5+ years.  Operations is now a genuine career option for banking professionals and is seen as a critical skill set by employers.

The top candidates have a genuine opportunity to progress through team leadership, mentoring and management, which can also lead to the transferring of these additional skills to an entirely new product area.

Alternatively, Operations is the best place for graduates beginning their careers in Financial Services for a number of reasons. Firstly the operations departments are well versed in training and nurturing raw talent and developing the product knowledge and skills a modern candidate requires in order to progress. Whilst developing their own skills in Operations, candidates are learning invaluable lessons about the nuts and bolts of the industry they work in.
