A finance internship in London will provide you with unparalleled real-world experience. London is the world’s most international and connected financial city, and sits at the crossroads of U.S. and European culture.

The ideal candidate will also be an effective and reliable team player with a “can do” attitude. Any European language skills are a plus.
