Client Management – HSBC Graduates

As a people-driven business, Client Management delivers a comprehensive range of financial products and services by developing long-standing, trusted adviser relationships with top-level executives. Our global teams comprise bankers with specialist knowledge dedicated to servicing the needs of our clients around the world.

Client Management's proposition is built on three key strengths:

  • Relationship management – Client Management recognises the importance of long-term relationships and works in partnership with clients to meet their financial, transactional and strategic requirements. Each client has a designated relationship manager whose objective is to become a trusted adviser. This involves gaining an in-depth understanding of the client's business and working closely with HSBC product specialists to develop and deliver tailored financial solutions
  • Industry and country specialisation – No two clients and no two markets are the same. A detailed knowledge of industry trends and country-specific issues is key to understanding and meeting our clients' requirements
  • HSBC's global network – Many of our clients are multinationals and require a bank that can provide a consistently high level of global service. Client Management is able to leverage HSBC's extensive international network to deliver its comprehensive range of products and services to corporates and institutions across the world

We are looking for articulate, outgoing individuals with excellent communication and interpersonal skills and high levels of motivation. You will need to be calm under pressure, especially when facing tight deadlines, and able to bring strong commercial acumen, a flair for problem-solving and a deal-driven approach to your day-to-day work.

As an Analyst, you will join a highly structured rotational programme offering comprehensive product training and support structures to assist in your career development.

You will receive early responsibility and the chance to show what you can do on important client work. This will be supported by in-depth, ongoing training, plus workshops, business briefings and social events. Your induction will introduce you to your global analyst peer group. We will expect you to leverage this network in order to develop a fuller understanding of the Group’s capabilities and satisfy your clients’ needs going forward.

The HSBC Summer Analyst Programme lasts for 10 weeks and is designed for ambitious penultimate year university students. This is a non-rotational programme taking place predominantly in our main hubs: London, New York, Hong Kong and Dubai. Our extensive range of opportunities covers all areas of Global Banking, Global Markets, Global Research, all areas of Global Infrastructure, HTS GBM Technology, Global Asset Management and Global Private Banking.

Whichever discipline you choose, the programme will act as a comprehensive introduction to that area of the Bank. Your programme will provide you with the platform to be considered for our Full-Time Analyst Programme. You will have the opportunity to show your genuine potential and develop the behaviours, skills and experience essential to enjoy a long-term career with us at HSBC.

The programme will comprise hands-on experience, excellent technical, behavioural and IT skills training and the opportunity to form very important networks with peers and business leaders alike. Just as importantly, each programme will act as an introduction to the culture and values of HSBC.

Taking all of these elements collectively, the HSBC Summer Analyst programme acts as an extended ‘assessment centre’ for people looking to join HSBC as a Full-Time Analyst once they finish university.
