Shape the numbers. Break the mould \n\nAt Lloyds Banking Group, Finance is less about adding things up and more about making things happen. Big things. \n\nItâs the engine room that powers us. Itâs strategy. Itâs insight. Itâs action. And if youâre one of our Accountancy apprentices, youâre not just along for the ride. Youâre driving. \n\nFrom the moment you join, youâre in the thick of it - shaping decisions, driving change and helping us deliver for millions of customers. \n\nSee the big picture \nThink of this as your 5 year allâaccess pass to the inner workings of the UKâs biggest bank.
