  About


You might know HSBC as the high street bank that you see in many towns and cities around the UK. However we are so much more than that! We are one of the world’s largest banking and financial services organisations and have many different types of roles both in high street branches and in our offices all around the world! We are a customer focused organisation which means that we keep our customers at the centre of all that we offer and are continually looking at ways to improve and develop our processes.

Our purpose is to open up a world of opportunity. We celebrate our differences and are building a culture where everyone feels included, valued and respected. We believe everyone should have the freedom to be themselves at work and we encourage colleagues to be active allies and to speak up if they have concerns. We want everyone to achieve their potential – regardless of their gender, ethnicity, disability, religion, sexual orientation, gender identification, or age.

We serve approximately 40 million customers through our global businesses: Wealth and Personal Banking, Commercial Banking, and Global Banking & Markets. Our network covers 63 countries and territories in Europe, Asia, the Middle East and Africa, North America and Latin America. The things that makes us stand out from other banks are our focus on customer service, both for our customers who we provide financial advice and support, but also for our employees, who we hugely value and we want them to have a long-term career with HSBC.

We have found that Apprenticeship opportunities are one of the very best ways to equip people with the skills they need to succeed. These opportunities all provide an alternative to the classical A-level and university pathways; with a range of different learning methods designed to fit their way of learning such as workplace teaching, classroom-based learning, online courses, on the job training and independent study.

In order to provide the best possible service to our customers, we are always looking to recruit the best and diverse talent whilst also developing our employees’ skills to meet the needs of the bank and our customers. We work with our global employee networks to create an environment where everyone feels included and supported. We have four values which our employees live be; they shape our decisions and day-to-day actions and therefore define our culture. These are valuing difference, succeeding together, taking responsibility and getting it done.

We offer our employees flexibility with their working style to support their wellbeing and work/life balance. The majority of our roles are hybrid, meaning employees work part of the week in one of our offices, and part of the week from home. Our offices are modern, open-plan, accessible, and inclusive. The majority of our offices have their own restaurants, as well as multi-faith rooms and on-site gyms with classes during lunch and after work. You could also work in our branches, which are our high street banks and customer service centres, based in many cities and towns in the UK.

Our offices are placed within many cities across the UK where our colleagues work. The majority of our early careers programmes are in the following locations:

·       Birmingham: 1 Centenary Square, Birmingham, B1 1HQ
