By now, you probably know that we're one of the world's largest financial
institutions. And you may have heard one or two other things as well -
like the fact that we have offices in 29 different countries or that we're
comprised of some of the UK's best-known brands. However much as you know
about us already though,
you could always learn some more.
Of course, we don't just mean straightforward facts. You could easily
discover that our first branch opened in Glasgow in 1783 or that today
we have over 22 million customers in the UK alone. However, that wouldn't
tell you a lot about who we are as an organisation or how we're structured
or - most importantly - what it's like to work here. Fortunately, if that's
what you want to find, then you've come to the perfect place.
As you can probably tell, we like to cover all the bases at Lloyds TSB.
And its not just because were an exciting, dynamic, cosmopolitan
organisation. When it comes to opening minds, we like to keep an open
mind. So giving our people wherever they come from a comprehensive
yet carefully tailored start to their career is important to us. After
all, youre going to be our future. And if anyone knows how to look
after an investment, its us.
If you already have some work experience that you feel would be beneficial
to Barclays Capital, we welcome your interest in our firm. Our experienced
hires recruitment teams in each region of the world are always interested
in hearing from candidates with skills relevant to our client strategy
and infrastructure platform.
We know that any firm in our industry should not underestimate just how
crucial it is to have the best people in the right jobs. The Barclays
Capital business model depends on smart people working together across
all the product groups to come up with the right solution for the client
under the circumstances.
Chances are, it's our high street branches up and down the UK. But did
you know that today's Barclays is a global financial organisation which
includes other big name businesses such as Barclaycard and Woolwich? And
that respected investment banking and asset management companies also
make up part of our group? Or that we have a vast IT infrastructure that
demands constant support and development from a wide range of IT professionals.
A quick look around our carrers information site will show you just how
broad our business has become and how many great career options we've
got to offer.
We believe in a diverse world of rich and interesting cultures. People
from different backgrounds deserve our respect, as we have much to learn
from their experiences.
For HSBC the world's local bank diversity reaches far beyond
compliance with legislation and equal opportunities initiatives.
We know that employing and managing people from many different backgrounds
gives us a more rounded organisation and makes us more adaptable to new
situations. This is not simply about gender, ethnicity, disability or
age: it is about open mindedness, embracing non-conformity and creating
balanced teams.
