Davy UK Graduate Programme - Belfast

As part of the continued expansion of our UK business, we are looking for ambitious and highly motivated individuals to join our Belfast team as a Wealth Management Associate. Over the three-year training contract, the candidate will receive support through the professional qualification process via the Chartered Institute of Insurance, leading to Level 4 Qualification, and working towards Chartered Financial Planner status.

What our programme offers

  • The opportunity to gain valuable experience with Ireland’s leading institutional, corporate and private client financial services provider.

  • There are three strands to our graduate programme, one in Wealth Management, one in Capital Markets, and our new strand in Risk, Compliance and Internal Audit. These are structured three-year programmes during which you will gain a deep understanding of the various teams within the department.

  • Feedback, advice and support every step of the way. All graduates are assigned a ‘Buddy’ – a colleague who has already been through our graduate programme – to help them settle into the company, and a ‘Mentor’ – a senior member of the business who will act as a ‘sounding board’ and career guide.
