2027 - Global Markets (Sales, Trading, Structuring & Research) - Summer Internship
Who We Are
Nomura is a global financial services group with an integrated network spanning over 30 countries. By connecting markets East & West, Nomura services the needs of individuals, institutions, corporates, and governments through our three business divisions: Retail, Wholesale (Global Markets and Investment Banking), and Investment Management.
Driven by the insights of some 26,000 people worldwide, we put our clients at the centre of everything we do, delivering unparalleled access to, from, and within Asia.
Global Markets Overview
Nomura's Global Markets division handles client transactions for financial institutions, corporates, governments, and investment funds around the world. We act as market makers, trading in fixed income and equity securities, including currencies, interest rates, and credit in cash, derivatives, and structured products. We have taken market-leading positions across the globe by leveraging the strength of our talent, client relationships, and technology.
Programme Overview
We offer a nine-week Summer Internship for penultimate year students interested in learning about the banking business. The programme will provide you with the opportunity to develop your technical knowledge, gain valuable on-the-job training, understand our culture, and create new networks.
The first week of the internship is classroom-based training which is provided to enhance your key technical skills and will enable you to perform on the desk during the internship. Following the training week, you will join one of our divisions for the remainder of the internship and complete tasks at a similar level to a first-year Analyst. At the end of the internship, strong performers will receive offers to join our Graduate Programme.
Global Markets Summer Analysts are provided with the opportunity to complete two rotations across Trading, Structuring, and Sales.
Additional sessions during the internship include soft skill sessions, product presentations, business overviews, as well as social events.
Training
Summer Analysts will receive extensive training to enhance the skills that they need to perform well during their internship. The programme includes training in Financial Markets, Bloomberg, Excel, Conduct Risk, and a variety of division-specific activities.
Throughout the Internship Programme, you will be supported both by a buddy, mentor, and dedicated programme management team.
What's Your Role?
Sales:
Developing and maintaining strong relationships with institutional clients, including pension funds, hedge funds, insurance companies, and other corporate clients.
Trading:
Assisting traders in buying and selling securities in the secondary market on behalf of clients or the firm; market-making and capital commitment.
Structuring:
Designing and developing innovative products and strategies for Nomura's clients, in partnership with the trading function, to create a risk management strategy for structured transactions and, together with sales, to create a marketing strategy for our products.
What Are We Looking For?
At Nomura, our goal is to attract and develop exceptionally talented people who share our passion for individual excellence and our commitment to teamwork. We recruit graduates and interns with a high level of academic and extracurricular achievement, who will be able to withstand the rigors of a rapidly changing, demanding but ultimately rewarding environment.
As an intern, you should be in your penultimate year at university.
Fluency in English is essential.
How to Apply
Please note that you can only submit one application per recruitment year. Applications must be submitted online and we recruit on a rolling basis. We encourage applicants to apply early.
To apply for a 2027 summer internship position, candidates should be available for full-time employment in July 2028. We accept applications for this programme from penultimate year students (graduating 2028).
