You’re the brains behind our work.

You’re ready to bring your knowledge from the classroom to the boardroom, and Citi wants to help you get there. Whether it’s honing your skills or building your network, we know that success can’t come without growth. Our programs equip you with the knowledge and training you need to play a valuable role on your team and establish a long-term career here. At Citi, we value internal mobility, and career growth is not a question of if, but when.

Citi is looking for Summer Analysts to join the Human Resources team in Belfast. Citi's Human Resources function plays a key role in servicing one of the most important client groups for Citi: its employees. Touching every part of every employee’s day‑to‑day life, our Human Resources team works in close partnership with Citi Business leaders to attract, develop, engage, and retain the talented individuals who work here.

We provide you with the knowledge and skills you need to succeed.

The HR Summer Analyst Program is a 10‑week internship opportunity in the HR function. The Program will provide Summer Analysts with on‑the‑job training in one of Citi’s Business Groups (Banking, Markets, Services, Wealth, and Functions) and one of the following HR functions:

• Learning and Culture
• Total Rewards
• Talent Management and Engagement
• Workforce Intelligence and Talent Acquisition
• HR Partnership and Delivery
• HR CAO (Chief Administrative Officer)
• Employee Relations and HR Policy

Your time here will look something like this.

The HR Summer Analyst Program is a developmental program which introduces college students to Human Resources through diversified experiences. The HR Summer Analyst program begins in June with a training program, providing Summer Analysts with an overview of Citi, a technology training session, and an introduction to Citi’s HR organization. The Summer Program will provide Summer Analysts with Senior and Junior Mentors, networking opportunities and Senior Speaker Events where Citi’s senior HR leaders host discussions and answer questions about their careers and the HR functions.

The Summer Analysts will receive real‑world work and will be expected to add value to their teams during the 10 weeks. In addition to their daily work, the Summer Analysts will also have the opportunity to network with other Citi interns, current program participants and alumni, and other HR professionals. The program concludes with the Summer Analysts presenting their accomplishments and lessons learned to the Senior HR Management team. The HR Summer Analyst Program is a significant feeder pool for the Full‑Time HR Analyst Program and top performing Summer Analysts will be considered for the full time Human Resources Analyst Program.
