Global Transaction Banking

About the role

Barclays Global Transaction Banking is a perfect place to begin, and build, a long, varied and successful career in Finance. You’ll be exposed to an unrivalled depth and breadth of experience. The work we do touches every aspect of corporate and commercial banking. You’ll also get a unique perspective on global commerce, seeing how financial solutions and working capital support every stage of the corporate value chain.

What to expect

You’ll be interacting with, and learning from, colleagues from Investment Banking, Corporate Banking, sales, operations, technology, relationship management, compliance and legal teams. You’ll be working closely with Transaction Banking experts who have years of experience and knowledge to share. You’ll be understanding the needs of every size and type of client, across every industry. The relationships and networks you build with colleagues, clients and other financial institutions will be priceless.

Throughout, you’ll be growing our business and forging new ground, with the support of one of the world’s leading corporate and investment banks. So you’ll enjoy more exposure, access and influence, at an earlier stage, than most established Transaction Banking teams can offer.

How you'll develop

This programme will help you understand how our payments products and services stand at the heart of our Corporate Banking proposition. You will work on developing new and exciting payment solutions, to be utilised by some of the biggest and best-known companies in the UK and worldwide. You will learn how to manage products from ideation through end of life, incorporating all the appropriate risk and control requirements.

Who thrives here

Global Transaction Banking is a diverse part of the bank made up of colleagues from a variety of backgrounds with different experiences. There is no typical ‘transaction banker’ but having a positive, can-do attitude is key. We need interns that can work in a fast paced, dynamic environment; candidates need to be able to adapt and think on their feet with good problem-solving skills. We are looking for interns who enjoy taking on new challenges, are curious, enjoy learning and are confident in bringing innovative ideas to the table.
