Treasury Summer Internship: Ready to make an impact?
Are you the equivalent of a rising senior in college working towards a career on the trading floor of a major bank, investment, or private equity firm or one of the departments supporting that function? Get a substantial boost down that path with a Treasury Summer Internship. With us, you will not just work in financial markets; you will help create new ones. The Treasury Summer Internship Program is a junior professional training program designed to develop the skills necessary for an exciting and rewarding career in the financial industry. The Program aims to bring exceptional college students with a demonstrated interest in a financial career to support the World Bank’s development mandate. The internship lays the foundation to become a Junior Analyst, a two-year position on one Treasury team, immediately after the intern graduates from their degree program. Interns are expected to be in their second to final year in the equivalent of a four-year college degree program.
The Work & Teams
The program will hire up to 17 interns across Treasury’s 17 teams this summer, and each intern will have a different rotation schedule to create a diverse and unique experience. Treasury comprises five main departments: Asset Management, Partnership & Advisory, Capital Markets, Treasury Clients Solutions & Structuring, Treasury Operations, and Pension & Endowments, in addition to the Treasury Risk, Compliance, and Controls team. Throughout their internship, each participant will be paired with a mentor and coordinator for each rotation, to provide guidance and support. Interns will engage in specific projects or tasks as directed by their team at the outset of each rotation. We highly encourage to explore more about our organization, each department, and read about the 17 teams.
The World Bank Group
The World Bank Group is one of the largest sources of funding and knowledge for developing countries; a unique global partnership of five institutions dedicated to ending extreme poverty, increasing shared prosperity, and promoting sustainable development. With 189 member countries and more than 120 offices worldwide, we work with public and private sector partners, investing in groundbreaking projects and using data, research, and technology to develop solutions to the most urgent global challenges.
