How the EFG Graduate Programme works?

Starting in September 2026 and over a period of 18 months, the EFG Graduate Programme offers a challenging and exciting opportunity for recent graduates. Tailored on individual skills, interests, and competencies, the programme provides an ideal opportunity to obtain wide-ranging experience in an international and fast-growing private banking group:

• You will start with a 2-week onboarding in Switzerland to discover EFG Mission, Vision and Culture and start building your professional network.

• Continuous learning opportunities to ensure you develop both personally and professionally to achieve full potential.
• Buddy and Mentor to accompany you throughout the programme.
• Truly global, we have positions based in Miami, London, Luxembourg, Geneva, Zurich, Lugano, Singapore and Hong Kong.

The EFG Graduate Programme comprises 3 professional paths in which you will equally experience our entrepreneurial spirit, commitment to excellence and innovative thinking.

• #EFG Business Functions
• #EFG Corporate Functions
• #EFG Digital and IT

If you choose the Corporate Functions path, you will gain hands‑on experience and insight into the key areas that support and drive the success of EFG.

As part of this path, you will complete a 6-month rotation in your preferred corporate function, allowing you to specialise and deepen your expertise. You will also undertake two additional 6-month rotations across other business units, broadening your understanding of the private banking industry.
