You can only learn so much in a lecture. So our Summer Internships are focused on helping you to flourish in real world situations. There’s no substitute for being at the heart of the action, experiencing the responsibility, complexity and buzz of the FSA and the industry it regulates. We’re confident that the exposure and practical experience you’ll gain will see your knowledge grow and grow over the course of our 10-week programme, providing an invaluable platform for your career.
As an intern, you’ll be given similar responsibilities to our graduates, so if you put a lot in, you’ll get plenty out. There are opportunities in a range of areas – you could be involved in the supervision of firms to ensure they are complying with regulatory requirements, the authorisation of firms and individuals to work in the UK, policy development or consumer education. You can also apply specifically for our Legal Internship Programme, which will be particularly attractive if you’re interested in joining our Legal Development Programme as a graduate.
The majority of our interns join our Canary Wharf office in London although we also offer some positions at our Edinburgh office.
