You'll gain hands on experience and knowledge across technology and we'll invest in you and your training, so you'll have the technical skills you need to help you achieve your long-term career aspirations.
Our programme is rotational and we`ll look to move you every 6 months over the two-year programme to give you a deeper understanding of our technology landscape. You`ll have the opportunity to try new things to help you discover both your passions and equally the things you less enjoy, helping you find the right career choice for you.
Our placements will span across various areas of Chief Operating Office including Digital Software Development, Object orientated programming (Java), Architecture and Design, Data Engineering, Data Science, Data Insights, Software Maintenance, Quality Engineering/Automated Testing and Information Security.
The work will vary depending on what team you are, but this will give you a flavour of what to expect:
• Work in an agile way, collaborating with technical and non-technical teams to drive our digital aspirations
• Working closely with experienced technology professionals on a mix of projects and interesting change initiatives that drive our strategic direction
• Interpreting requirements and contributing ideas to create efficient, innovative, and highly functional solutions for customers
• Assisting on design and development of new features and ways of working
• Helping to build, design, test and deliver high quality solutions in line with guidance and best practices
• Learning new technologies and augmenting your skills to keep abreast of new developments
• Contributing to the overall evolution of digital best practice within Virgin Money
• Writing and reviewing clear and concise technical documentation to support your work
We need you to have
• 2:2 degree or above ideally in an IT or Data related subject from any university; PhD and Masters students are also welcome
• Due to the technical nature of this programme, you'll need a good understanding of at least one modern programming language or framework, a love of technology and a strong desire to learn.
• A passion for technology and problem solving and an excitement to immerse yourself in a fun, fast moving and challenging environment
• A growth mind-set with a strong desire to learn and grow your career
• A rigorous, methodical approach with excellent attention to detail
• Tenacity, demonstrating an ability to continually learn from your successes and failures
• A great attitude and sense of ambition - be motivated with an appetite for success
• Ability to build productive working relationships and be a credible team player
• Most importantly we need you to be passionate about being involved at the heart of our business, with one eye on what we're delivering today and the other on the future planning for the bank
