Our Summer Business Internship Programme has been crafted to simulate our Business Graduate Programme so that you can understand what a career with LSEG would really be like.
To be eligible, you must be a penultimate year undergraduate student due to complete all the requirements of your course summer 2026.
During your time with us, you will have the opportunity to explore potential career paths by working in the Post Trade or Capital Markets, where you will gain an insight into one of our areas supporting financial risk or supporting our existing products or working with our Sales/Account Management teams in FX. To allow us to place you in the right area we will get to know your skills and interest and how they align with the needs of the business.
We will also support you in discovering more about the different areas of LSEG by connecting you with the relevant departments so that you can learn more about them. All the while you will apply your new skills to real-world business challenges.
These are real roles. Our 9 weeks summer interns play a part in the success of our organisation, just like they would do as a graduate.

- You should have a demonstrable interest in financial markets, which you’ve built through your studies, work experience or extracurricular activities.
- A curiosity for data and an ability to analyse information to draw conclusions and propose solutions.
- The environment we work in is fast paced, you’ll need to demonstrate focus, resilience and the flexibility to adapt to changing demands.
- People who can collaborate with others, using their strong communication skills in the process.
- For interns in our Product teams, we are particularly interested in students that have studied a STEM related subject.
You will stand out to us if you can demonstrate and recognise that what you achieve is equally important to how you achieve it.
Application close: 22 November, however we recommend an early application because we consider candidates on a rolling basis. Due to the volume of applications, we might close the applications earlier, so we recommend an early application.
