What are we looking for? What you bring

We are seeking highly motivated students that share our values: Ownership: You are curious and get involved. You ask why a process works the way it does, offer to help where your team needs it, and see your own projects through from start to finish. Tenacity: You are driven and self-dependent. When the data doesn’t add up or the first approach fails, you look for another way and you come back with an answer. Foresight: You are a proactive self-starter with a can-do mentality. You spot what’s coming and you take the initiative to solve it before it becomes a problem.

What sets you apart

• AI literacy: You use AI tools to research, analyze and draft faster, and you double-check their output before you rely on it.
• Collaboration: You work well with others and build your network. You reach out to colleagues beyond your own team, learn how other parts of the bank work, and share what you find.

You are enrolled in a Bachelor's or Master's program, or graduated within the last two years, in finance, technology or a related field. You have a genuine interest in the financial sector. You are fluent in English, written and spoken. German, French or Italian is a plus. You hold a valid work permit for the location you are applying to.

What do we offer?

• Prime Zurich location: Modern collaboration spaces, and free onsite canteen offering freshly prepared lunches to keep you energized.
• Supportive and inclusive culture: Be part of a friendly, diverse team that values individuality and collaboration in an open-office setting.
• Tools for success: Access the latest technology and resources to excel in your role.
• Networking opportunities: join our NextGen community and meet other interns for lunch.
• Flat hierarchy and innovation: Collaborate at all levels and contribute to exciting projects in an agile, future-focused work environment.
