Be part of something big
Want to be part of a team working on projects worth £750 million? Want to be able to see the results of your hard work first-hand? Want a first-class finance qualification at the same time as real-life experience?
If so, then starting your financial career on the BT Graduate Finance programme could be the answer. You’ll be joining a team that’s right at the heart of a major global company. There’s no deal, no bid, no marketing strategy at BT that the Finance team isn’t involved in. You will experience working in reporting, planning & analysis, operational support and specialist areas like tax and treasury. That means the type of work you’re exposed to here is more varied than anywhere else. It’s fast-paced, testing and challenging. But if you’re the kind of person we’re after, that shouldn’t be a problem.
What qualification will I get?
We’ll fully fund you through your CIMA qualification, which includes your exams, course fees and revision courses. We’ll give you time off work to study, and we’ll give you an extra bonus if you pass first time or if you win a CIMA award.
Could you help BT prepare itself for the future?
HR supports our global organisation, developing a culture where everyone can succeed to the best of their ability. To excel in HR, you’ll need to be perceptive, good at communicating and commercially astute. You’ll need to develop strong business acumen, and really get to grips with all the different parts of BT’s business.
During the programme, you’ll either take on an all-round role as one of our HR business partners, or get the opportunity to specialise in areas such as learning and development, performance management and employee relations. You'll also be giving managers and their teams support and advice on a daily basis in areas like resourcing, training and policy development.
What qualification will I get?
By the time you finish your programme, we’ll have supported you to become a full CIPD graduate member.
Do you have creative flare and a sharp commercial mind?
If so, you’ll find marketing an exciting place to be. Our marketing teams are responsible for the face and voice of our business. As a graduate, you could gain experience in a variety of different roles, and in a number of different areas including insight and research, campaigns, communications, propositions and marketing operations. There are also opportunities available to become a product manager, managing existing products or leading the development of new ones. Whatever you get involved in, our graduate development programme will give you the business skills you need to thrive in this demanding environment.
What qualification will I get?
On top of the training we offer as part of the programme, we will fully fund your study towards a CIM qualification.

Procurement

As a graduate, you’ll be making sure the products and services we procure are fit for purpose, high quality and delivered to the right place at exactly the right time. You’ll be making sure our suppliers are as socially responsible as we are and building relationships all around the business. You’ll also be negotiating supplier contracts, so we’ll help you develop your negotiation skills – essential for any career in business – as well as all the other skills you’ll need to get ahead in your career.
Supply Chain
