Job Description

Come work with our industry experts to identify, assess and manage risk for our global businesses. You will work with people of all levels across the firm, develop a broad understanding of products and their risks, build your professional network, and develop your expertise in a diverse team environment. Working here means joining a collaborative, supportive team. We want your diverse perspective to help us innovate the next wave of products and solutions for our clients. You’ll have what you need to succeed – from training and mentorship from senior leaders to projects that engage all your skills.

What You Can Expect

Understanding, mitigating and managing risk is at the forefront of how we do business, and critical to our current and future success. Risk managers help manage our financial reputations and regulatory performance, while working across the business to shape decisions, influence models and interface with regulators.

The nine-week summer program starts with a five day induction and training session. Expert instructors and JPMorganChase professionals will teach you about our history, our products and the intellectual property that serve our clients. You'll build your technical and practical knowledge on-the-job with opportunities in one of the chosen risk teams listed below:

  • The Credit Risk Team works in partnership with areas of the Commercial and Investment Bank and is responsible for assessing client credit strength and approving and managing the firm's retained credit risk. This risk (i.e. the risk of default) can relate to underwriting, lending and trading activities, including investment and non-investment grade syndicated loans, acquisition finance, derivatives, foreign exchange and other products.
  • The Market Risk Team works in partnership with the CIB trading businesses. The team tracks market events, performs portfolio analysis and provides risk advisory for multiple asset classes including FX, Rates, Equities, Credit, Securitized Products, and Commodities retained by the firm. Market Risk engages in discussions with all levels of management on the firm’s risk appetite ahead of and during major market events.
  • The Chief Investment Office, Treasury and Corporate (CTC) Risk Team is an independent risk function that manages the risk of the retained portfolio generated from the CTC businesses and includes Market Risk, Credit Risk, Reputational Risk, Country Risk, Principal Risk, and Model Risk. CTC Risk is also responsible for the independent risk management of Firmwide Liquidity Risk, Interest Rate Risk, and Capital Risk.

The program is an opportunity to take your career to the next level through hands-on experience, relevant training and valuable professional networking. The internship will take place in JPMorganChase’s EMEA headquarters in London and successful candidates may receive offers for full-time employment within graduate programmes for the following year in the location specified in the application.

Help us learn about you by submitting a complete and thoughtful application, which includes your resume. Your application and resume is a way for us to initially get to know you, so it’s important to complete all relevant application questions so we have as much information about you as possible.

To start the application, you will be prompted to enter your email address. Your email address will be used to create and maintain your profile so make sure it is one you will have long term access to. Do not use an email address with “.edu or .ac.uk” extension as doing so could result in delays receiving updates regarding your candidacy.
