CAREERS

Overview:#

Our six-week Internship Programme seeks to hire highly ambitious, detail-oriented and enthusiastic undergraduates. Previous financial services experience is not essential, but we do look for candidates that have demonstrated a clear interest in the field, whom we can develop and mentor over the six-week period.

Throughout the internship, you will have the opportunity to participate in all aspects of fundraising projects and provide support to members of Brevan Howard’s Client Partnerships Group (“CPG”) who manage relationships with both current clients and institutional investor prospects, and seek to establish new investor partnerships for the firm. The internship will provide you with an opportunity to interface with individuals across various functions globally, including portfolio managers, risk, legal / compliance, business development and other groups within the firm. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who is eager to learn about alternative investments and the institutional investor landscape.

The internship is designed as a two-way process to help determine whether you and Brevan Howard are a compatible fit. Successful candidates could be offered the opportunity to join the CPG as a full-time hire the following year.
