Company

Whatever your degree, culture, or background, we welcome students and graduates into our inclusive culture and support them to build a career that makes a difference.

Graduates can join us in areas including:

  • Global Tech and Operations (Providing the infrastructure, technology platforms and information security capabilities that help us serve our customers and clients)
  • Banking Markets (Working directly with our customers, companies and clients)
  • Finance and Business Support Functions (ensuring the successful running of our day-to-day business)

Each line of business offers unique opportunities, and there's plenty of inter-department collaboration, particularly across projects that use tech to shape a smarter, greener, safer and more inclusive world.

This includes everything from teaching girls to code and increasing the number of women working in tech, to taking a step towards net zero by helping our clients achieve sustainable growth.

As well as getting involved in exciting client projects, graduates are encouraged to make the most of the various internal groups and events such as internal sports teams, Diversity and Inclusion employee networks and volunteering programmes.

What makes us a great place to work for students and recent graduates?

At Bank of America, we pride ourselves on being a great place to work. We prioritise all of our colleagues' wellbeing so that they can enjoy fulfilling professional and personal lives. From the Cycle to Work scheme to the Employee Assistance Program and our partnership with Mental Health UK, we support everyone to look after their physical and mental health. Bank of America was recognised as the best company for Healthcare and Wellbeing Benefits at the Employee Benefits Awards 2024.

We're also proud to be champions of D&I. We've been named the world's best bank for diversity and inclusion by Euromoney, and we ensure we welcome and support all employees, no matter who they are or where they are from.
