Redefining Finance in banking – Be part of the future

Finance at Standard Bank is more than just numbers. We are the guardians of financial resources, strategic advisors, and drivers of innovation within the organisation. Our expertise ensures the efficient allocation of resources, strong financial control, and a deep understanding of our complex products, markets, and business landscape. We work collaboratively with key stakeholders to unlock opportunities, mitigate risks, and shape the future of finance.

Our function is also evolving — we are invested in innovation, data science, and new ways of working, constantly pushing the boundaries of what finance in banking can achieve.

Who we’re looking for:

We’re searching for individuals who bring something unique to the table. Regardless of your field of study, if you have the right mindset, curiosity, and drive, we want you on our team.

Joining our Finance Graduate Programme means gaining real exposure and insights into the inner workings of a leading financial institution. From day one, you’ll take on meaningful work, develop critical skills, and contribute to impactful projects.

We’re looking for self-motivated problem solvers who thrive in dynamic environments and are eager to challenge the status quo. You should have a passion for finance, financial markets, and strategic thinking, along with strong communication and collaboration skills.
