Being a GTS Analyst at Citi

We offer a wide range of challenging roles for talented individuals, as well as the opportunity to join a high-performing team that contributes directly to the growth of this exciting business.

The GTS Analyst Program gives you a unique experience and a head start on a career in banking and finance within the EMEA region. The program is structured to ensure you build invaluable business, technical and leadership skills that will help you navigate and thrive in a fast-paced, multi-national corporate environment.

Initial Training
At the end of August you’ll commence a five-week training program in London. This training is delivered by external and internal trainers and includes; team building, an introduction to financial markets, fundamentals of accounting and an understanding of the core GTS product offering covering both Treasury and Trade solutions and Securities and Fund Services. The final week will be spend preparing a solution to a GTS specific case study which you will be asked to deliver to GTS Senior Management. The training also provides a range of social events to develop your networking skills and enhance your ability to build relationships. 

What You'll Learn as an Analyst
At the end of your initial training, you will commence the first of four six-month rotations. Once you have completed 12 months on the program, you will attend mid-program training which includes; an understanding of credit and market risk, action selling and enhancing personal impact.

Who We're Looking For
We’re committed to investing in our Analyst Programs, both during the recruitment stage and beyond. We provide ongoing learning and development opportunities to ensure all of our people have superior financial knowledge and the skills they need to develop and maintain profitable client relationships.

We asked our GTS recruiters to describe what makes a good candidate and what specific skills they are looking for.

We welcome applications from all backgrounds and celebrate diversity. Employing and training the most talented candidates is fundamental to achieving our business goals.

To excel, you’ll need an excellent academic background and will have to demonstrate high levels of self-motivation, initiative and adaptability. You’ll be creative and enjoy solving problems, both independently and in a team environment. If you’re applying for a role outside London, you must be fluent in the language of the country you are applying to work in. As the GTS full-time Analyst Program runs across EMEA, you should be willing to relocate across the region at some stage during the two-year rotational program.

 

Summer Internship

Our Summer Internship Program runs for 10 weeks from the end of June to the end of August. You’ll attend an induction to Citi with over 100 other Summer Analysts who are joining Citi’s various divisions in London.

Your initial training will include:

  • Things you need to know as a new Citi employee
  • An introduction to Global Financial Markets and Citi. This course provides the opportunity for you to identify and explain the main business areas of an investment bank and our products and services, as well as to engage in interactive trading simulations and portfolio management
  • Specific business presentations

 

After Training
Before you join the program, you’ll be given a number of project options to select from. This will determine the team that you’ll be working with over the summer. Throughout your time with us, we’ll host a number of business presentations over breakfast and lunch to give you the opportunity to network with some of our most senior GTS representatives. In addition, we hold a weekly business presentation series, networking opportunities with senior managers, and various intern-wide social events. We’ll also allocate you a ‘buddy’, who will provide you with a support network and informal advice.

During the program, you’ll take part in a formal evaluation process that will help us to determine your suitability for a full-time position on the following year’s Analyst Program.

Remember, this is a two-way process; we also want you to decide whether this is the right place for you to start your career.
