How do Fidelity’s Fixed Income team create a repeatable competitive advantage? Here’s your chance to find out.
What we do
Feel passionate about becoming an investor and making a real difference to our clients’ future? Enjoy working as part of a team and taking ownership of your own work?
Our Fixed Income team manages debt securities in a range of funds covering investment grade, high yield, emerging markets, hybrids, and money markets.
What you will be doing
Over the course of a 10-week programme, you’ll have the opportunity to work on live projects, attend meetings and make your own recommendations. We will provide training on financial modelling, research, risk exposure and the commercial aspects of our Fixed Income products. You will complete one or more project during the programme and present your findings to a panel of senior colleagues. You will also have the opportunity to rotate across multiple teams to gain a holistic understanding of the Fixed Income investment process.
Every step of the way, you will be supported by an assigned buddy and the wider investment team. You will have a company-wide Fidelity Induction in your first week and then specific technical training in your second week with us. You will also be invited to attend bitesize learning sessions throughout your time with us. Every week, we also offer virtual drop-in sessions with the Early Careers team to answer your questions and support you during the programme.
What we look for
We’re looking for highly driven people with intellectual curiosity, commercial understanding, ambition, resilience, comfort with numeracy and an absolute commitment to serving the best interests of our clients.
We welcome applications from all degree disciplines and and all academic achievements. You will need to be in the penultimate year of your degree and available to complete 10 weeks of full-time work this coming summer.
Thirst for Knowledge
You will be intellectually curious and possess the ability and creativity to collect and analyse a range of information, then use it to make judgements on the prospects of industries.
Analytical Skills
You will have the ability to undertake often complex research, interpret data, judge the merits of differing opinions, and form insights essential to ensure we make wise investments for our clients.
Articulate & Persuasive
You’ll need the tenacity and confidence to communicate your judgement on whether bonds in a company should be bought or sold and justify your thinking (at times with imperfect information).
