Relationship Management (Commercial Bank) Internship - London

We’re looking for people who love building connections, supporting others, and making a real impact. You don’t need to know everything about banking – bring your curiosity and drive, and we’ll help with the rest.

• A natural communicator: You express yourself clearly and enjoy helping others understand new concepts.
• A people person: You love getting to know people and building relationships.
• Fast-paced and detail-oriented: You can juggle different tasks, and work well under pressure, paying attention to detail and adapting when priorities shift.
• Team player: You enjoy working with others and you know success is always a team effort.
• Ownership mindset: You don’t wait for someone else to solve your problems, you take initiative and suggest solutions.
• Eager to learn: You’re curious by nature, always wanting to learn more and ready to pick up new knowledge.
• Self-aware: You understand how your actions and attitude affect others, and you want to grow both personally and professionally.

If you’re the kind of person who gets a buzz from helping others succeed – and loves the idea of being part of your clients’ story – we’d love to hear from you.

What you’ll do

From day one, you’ll be part of a dedicated team focused on building, growing, and protecting deep, trusted relationships with our Commercial Banking clients. You won’t just observe – you’ll play a role in helping clients succeed and safeguarding their legacy, while strengthening HSBC’s position as a trusted partner.

Here’s a taste of what you’ll get involved in:

• Work with specialist teams: See how Relationship Managers partner with experts across the bank to grow client relationships and deliver tailored financial solutions.
• Get early exposure to clients: You’ll start building connections from the outset, gaining insight into clients’ businesses, their goals, and how HSBC’s solutions – from sustainable supply chains to green bonds – can support their success, because their success is our success.
• Act as the link between HSBC and its clients: Support the team in getting to know clients inside out. That deep knowledge helps us ensure HSBC delivers the right solutions at the right time.
• See collaboration in action: Experience how we work across teams, geographies, and functions, including Legal, Credit, and Risk, to deliver for our clients.
• Get hands-on with real tasks: You’ll help create client presentations, reports, and credit papers; support strategic reviews and pitches; and conduct financial analysis and risk assessments on client portfolios and transactions.

What you’ll learn

Your journey kicks off with a full week of structured training delivered by local and external experts to give you the technical know-how to hit the ground running.

By the end of the internship, you’ll have a solid understanding of the area of relationship management in Commercial Banking, how it all fits together, and where you could make your mark.
