Whether you are a recent graduate or will graduate in Summer 2027, this is an opportunity to begin your career in a supportive and growth-oriented environment.

Within the Futures Program, this role is aligned to our Global Client Group and designed for individuals interested in sales, marketing, product, and business development. Associates build experience through project-based and analytical assignments while gaining exposure to different teams and business perspectives. Development is supported through on-the-job experience, training, networking opportunities, and mentorship from a Franklin Templeton leader, helping associates build a strong foundation in the industry while learning how teams use CRM, data, AI, and sales enablement tools to support client experience, ETFs, private markets, institutional solutions, and departmental goals.

How it works:

• The program consists of four six-month rotations designed to build professional skills through meaningful contributions to team goals.
• The first rotation provides foundational exposure to Franklin Templeton's products and clients.
• Associates build a broader understanding of the firm before moving into rotations more closely aligned to their strategic focus area.

Futures Associates aligned to the Global Client Group will join our Edinburgh office in September 2027.

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Ability to synthesise complex information.

Soft Skills
