**Product Graduate Programme (2 years)**

**Product is where we design, manage and promote the products our customers need, and build lifelong connections across a range of marketing channels.**

On our **Graduate Leadership programmes**, you’ll learn at pace and gain exposure to senior leaders and a variety of projects and teams, giving you everything you need to be a future leader at our Bank; all whilst working towards a **relevant professional qualification**.

Rotational placements across the Product team will give you the inside track on the inner workings of an ethical bank. Developing your technical and commercial skills, you’ll explore how we design our products, taking into consideration our customer needs and the commercial needs of the business. On your placements, you’ll get first-hand experience from a number of teams, which could include working on:

- Developing propositions with product managers and getting you involved all the way from idea generation to delivery
- Developing product policies and understanding how we support our risk colleagues, gain exposure to product regulations, compliance and risk reporting in the process
- Sharpening your commercial acumen by supporting our pricing teams with changes that will increase their appeal and drive income
- Marketing and digital projects, learning how our product offering reaches our customers and how you can begin to shape improvements to make it easier and simpler for customers to engage with us

You’ll also work towards a relevant professional qualification.

- Programme Duration: 2 years
- Starting Salary and Band: £29,500

**Your placements**

Placements will vary depending on business needs at the time as well as being tailored to your areas of interest. Each placement is designed to develop your commercial and strategic thinking, negotiation and influencing skills and understanding of how our Bank works. Our two and three year Graduate schemes provide a structured development programme. You’ll develop key leadership skills and competencies and gain knowledge and experience through a series of placements across your chosen business area.

**Fantastic support**

There’s much more to our graduate programmes than on-the-job experience. We’ll give you all of the tools we can to drive your career and develop you as a person. You’ll have access to all the support you need, but the ultimate responsibility for shaping your development will be yours. Your Business Sponsor will review and appraise your performance, providing feedback and coaching at every step of the way to ensure your success and personal growth. We’ll also assign you a senior leader mentor and work with you on a personal development plan to draw together technical training and personal and professional learning to help you grow your skills and gain a relevant apprenticeship.

**Are you made of the right stuff?**

We’re looking for commercial thinkers with real enthusiasm, energy and potential. Level headed with a mind full of bright ideas, you’ll crave responsibility and have the drive to see things through from start to finish. A great communicator who can connect with anyone - whoever they are, you’ll enjoy taking on new challenges and creating and developing new products and ideas that will shape the future of banking.
