Women in Trading Academy
Country: United Kingdom
Programme: Women in Trading Academy
City: London
Department: Global Markets
BNP Paribas invite you to apply for our Women in Trading Academy. As well as virtual sessions throughout the year, we will welcome you to our London HQ to take part in a combination of interactive and educational sessions to help you gain insights into how the market works, how a trader thinks, and whether this is a career you could excel in. We are looking for women studying STEM subjects who don’t necessarily have experience in the sector, but do have an aspiration to learn more and explore the possibility of a future in trading.
All successful Woman in Trading Academy applicants will automatically secure a space on our 2026 Summer Internship programme; admittance to the Trading Academy is subject to accepting a Summer Internship offer.
Our aim is to provide you with a deeper understanding of what a career in trading entails and prepare you to succeed across the Summer Internship programme and beyond.
What you’ll do
* Take part in various trading games
* Shadow traders on the trading floor
* Learn about how the market, specifically trading, works
* Gain insights into BNP Paribas and our culture
* Be paired with a buddy (a trader at BNPP) to help you make the most of the programme
What we’re looking for
* Fluent verbal and written English
* A predicted 2:1 grade or equivalent in a STEM degree to be completed in 2027
* Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
* Strong organisational and time management skills
* Motivation to learn and explore Global Markets
* Proficiency in Microsoft Office

1. A great place to work
We offer flexible working options (including hybrid, where applicable) and a collaborative culture that values balance and inclusion.

We are committed to providing a work environment that promotes diversity, inclusion and equal opportunities for all.
Adjustments
If you have a disability or health condition that may require adjustments during the recruitment process, please let us know early so we can support you.
Additional Information
* An application for the Women in Trading Academy is equivalent to an application for the 2026 Global Markets Summer Internship and therefore candidates do not need to apply to both programmes
* You may only apply for one Summer Internship programme per academic year (Global Banking, Global Markets, Technology or Securities Services)
