Santander graduate roles: what they involve

The open graduate role is an Accounting and Finance Control Analyst position in London, within Santander Corporate & Investment Banking. It focuses on business-as-usual accounting and reporting, particularly month-end work, administrative and staff costs, invoicing, payments and financial controls.

The description suits someone interested in accurate financial operations, reporting and control work.

The other open roles cover customer service, customer experience, relationship management, risk, controls and regulatory reporting, based on their titles.

How to apply to Santander's graduate scheme

The graduate description sets out the work involved but does not specify application stages. As a typical UK process, you may be asked to submit an online application and CV, answer suitability questions, complete an assessment or interview, and discuss your experience and interest in the role.

Treat those stages as general guidance rather than Santander's confirmed process. Check Santander's careers site for the current application steps, any role-specific instructions and the documents or information requested before applying. Read the advert carefully and make your evidence relevant to accounting, reporting, accuracy, controls and teamwork.

If you are applying from outside the UK, check the advert and ask Santander whether the particular vacancy is open to applicants needing immigration permission. A company licence does not by itself confirm that every vacancy is eligible for sponsorship.
