COMPANY SNAPSHOT

If you’ve got the hunger, drive and personality to succeed and want to be at the cutting-edge of financial markets there has never been a better time to start your career in interdealer broking. As volatility continues in the global financial markets ICAP, the world’s premier voice and electronic interdealer broker, is experiencing record levels of activities.

Our business:
By combining the strength of our people together with technology we aim to continue setting the standard for our industry. Our clients include investment and commercial banks and they pay a commission to use us to complete a transaction. Access to a broker offers clients significant economics of scale in price discovery by having a number of professionals covering each product and being in constant contact with a range of counterparties. Access to a broker therefore allows a bank to increase market coverage in busy times without incurring additional overheads. Our success is based on our ability to move quickly in response to the changes and opportunities our customers identify the rapidly evolving wholesale financial services marketplace.

Who we are looking for:
Like other financial services employers we expect you to have great academic achievements and a keen interest in financial markets. But that is where the similarity ends. At ICAP we are genuinely interested in people who have got the hunger, drive and personality to succeed. Our business is all about building relationships with our clients and you’ll need the good humour and energy to enjoy working a fast-moving, team-orientated environment. You’ll be well prepared and will have research ICAP and the world of interdealer broking. You’ll have a personal view on our recent successes and potential growth areas of our business. A second language is an advantage.

We have graduate and internship opportunities available in Voice Broking, Electronic Broking, Ship Broking and Accounting.

Our offer:
You’ll take part in our global orientation program in London and then undertake desk rotations which will expose you to the different areas of the business and determine your final placement. Our comprehensive induction and continuous development will ensure your abilities are realized, your skills are developed and your potential is encouraged. You’ll receive an excellent remuneration package that’s highly competitive with the investment banking sector.
