If you have any questions, please do contact the team at lloydsbankinggrouptalent@peoplescout.co.uk Job Description Shape the numbers. Shape the future. In Finance at Lloyds Banking Group, we do a lot more than balance the books. We’re part strategists, part storytellers, part tech-savvy problem-solvers. We guide big decisions, steer smart investments, manage risk. And keep the UK’s biggest bank on the front foot. This isn’t your average “add it up and file it away” finance job. The financial world is changing at speed – new tech, new competitors, shifting customer needs – and we’re right there, responding and adapting. We dive into data, track the markets, stay ahead of regulation, influence how products are built, and make sure the Group’s financial health doesn’t just stay fighting fit, it grows. On your Accounting and Business Insights Industrial Placement, you won’t be watching from the sidelines with a spreadsheet. You’ll be right in the thick of it. Bringing insights that shape where we put our resources, how we manage risk, and how we deliver value for millions of customers and shareholders. One year. Unlimited learning. Over your 12 months, you’ll have the opportunity to get a panoramic view of how the bank ticks (and how to keep it ticking smoothly). What your work could look like Supporting monthly reporting cycles, helping produce accurate financial results and commentary Analysing data to explain what’s driving performance and where we can improve Building reports and visualisations to support decisions across the business Working with teams to improve processes, increase efficiency and reduce risk Turning complex numbers into clear, practical insight for stakeholders Partnering with the business to understand performance and influence future decisions. Across the programme, you’ll get a 360° view of how finance powers the bank, work on projects with real strategic impact, and be part of tech-driven transformation that’s redefining what a modern finance function can do. The skills you’ll master By the end of the scheme, you’ll work towards being: Finance-fluent – creating accurate, timely, decision-ready financial info. Commercially sharp – understanding how we generate revenue and create value. Insight-driven – analysing data to explain performance and identify opportunities. Tech-enabled – using analytics tools, reporting platforms and automation to improve how we work Influential – building trusted relationships and using your analysis to spark decisions that make a strategic difference. You may also have the opportunity to join multi-skilled teams where finance meets technology. Because in modern finance, how we work is just as important as what we deliver. Requirements What you need to apply Be in your penultimate year at university. While we do not require a set projected minimum degree achievement, we strongly recommend the ability to be able to demonstrate sound knowledge, understanding and technical skills aligned to the role. Some aspects of this, alongside behaviours and values, will be assessed through the application process. We cannot sponsor visas. Locations Choose from various UK locations including South West, West Yorkshire, London and Edinburgh. You’ll be based there throughout your programme. With our hybrid working policy, all colleagues are expected to spend a minimum of two days each week in the office. Opening and Closing date Applications for our Accounting and Business Insights Industrial Placement Scheme open on 10th September and close on 8th November, except for the London location, which closes on 4th October.
