About Alpha Bank London

A Legacy of Trust. A Future of Innovation.

Founded in 1922, Alpha Bank London is a specialist bank serving clients across the UK and internationally. As part of the wider Alpha Bank Group, we combine the heritage and stability of an international banking organisation with the agility, exposure and collaborative culture of a smaller bank.

We're an ambitious organisation with exciting plans for growth, including the development of a new digital retail banking proposition focused on serving the Greek, Cypriot and wider diaspora communities across the UK.

Our Internship Programme

At Alpha Bank London, interns don't spend five months on the sidelines.

• Direct access to senior leaders and decision-makers
• Support from an experienced manager and dedicated buddy

As a specialist bank, we offer the responsibility, visibility and breadth of experience that can be difficult to find elsewhere.

• Hybrid working with a minimum of three days per week in our London office (Wednesday is a core office day)
• To maximise the internship experience, interns are encouraged to spend four days per week in the office
• Recruitment and interviews will take place during October 2026
