2 roles at 2 firms that hire for entry-level jobs all year rather than in a graduate intake, so they have no opening date and are not counted above. Most are in London.
This is the first season we have followed most of these firms, so next year this page will say when each one is likely to open.
Banking graduate jobs in London are open at 1 of the 12 firms our record follows for retail banking here, with 1 role listed between them.
The firm table gives each firm's row. The record counts the season for a 2027 start from 1 June 2026. Since that day, 12 firms posted a London retail banking graduate role, and 11 of those are no longer listed.
No: Santander UK gives Milton Keynes as the location of its Global Retail Graduate Programme, and Barclays' Business, Customer & Retail Banking graduate page names no location.
Santander UK asks for a recent STEM degree or one aligned to product design, business analytics, business studies or economics, and 112 UCAS points from the top three A Level grades or equivalent, excluding General Studies and the Extended Project.
Among the schemes named here, Barclays' Business, Customer & Retail Banking graduate programme runs two years and Santander UK's Global Retail Graduate Programme, based in Milton Keynes, runs 27 months.
Barclays' graduates complete three eight-month rotations across Barclays UK businesses, which bring together Retail Banking, Business Banking, Customer Care, Customer & Digital and BUK Centre. Barclays names the role Business, Customer and Retail Graduate Analyst.
At Barclays, an application to an internship or graduate programme starts with a form on its careers site and two short interactive assessments.
Those who succeed are invited to an assessment centre, in person or virtual, of two or three stages. Barclays adds that technical programmes such as Explorer Developer may also ask for an assessment of technical skills.
1 firm is open for retail banking graduate jobs in London right now, each with its own portal, documents and deadline. Jorb AI's application agent handles the multi-firm workload in one place, tailoring a CV and cover letter for each role you pursue and tracking each application alongside the rest.
“Opened” is the date the firm posted a role, or the day Jorb AI first saw it on the firm’s own careers site, which we check daily. “No longer listed” means the posting has been gone for a few days. Last season’s dates are shown only for firms we were already following when that season began.
Open counts every listing still open, including those first seen before 1 June; Opened this season counts only those first seen since.
