Training

We provide a structured and extensive training program for new hires, covering not just the technologies and functionalities of the Summit system but also to provide grounding in the relevant capital markets concepts.   Training will continue over your junior years, but we would also expect you to get exposure to real client projects after just a few months with us giving you the chance for an early contribution to our business. 
 
As you develop your skills and experience with us, your ongoing training will become tailored to your individual talents and interests.   Unlike other specialist software consultancies, we have our own licenced instance of the vendor software and substantial internal resources for training and development. 
 
Travel Opportunities
 
Although regular or long term travel is by no means mandatory or expected, our consultants have the opportunity to travel within Europe and further afield, both on short term and more permanent placements, if they are interested to do so. 
 
Working overseas brings an extraordinary wealth of experience both professionally and socially and we support all our staff in any ambitions to spend time abroad.

Multiple possible career paths
 
We don’t assume that – as a graduate – you know exactly how you want your career to progress.  If you do – fantastic – we will support you to meet your goals.  But the reality is that many people haven’t found their calling.  Having exposure to all aspects of our business will help you explore your talents and discover what you love.    
 
Our Summit services require a variety of talent and expertise, from technical architects and specialist C++ developers with strong quantitative mathematical skills through to support analysts, testing and quality assurance specialists, and functional experts in all the diverse areas of capital markets (financial products, pricing and risk management, back office processing, accounting , collateral management, and clearing and regulatory requirements).
 
By the very nature of the work we do, and the size of the company, most of our graduates will become multi-skilled, giving versatility and scope to progress in a range of directions.
