Why join us

We are delighted to be part of the Investment2020 initiative and to be offering the opportunity for individuals to join GAM.

The purpose of our trainee programme is to enable individuals with limited or no exposure to financial services to start their careers and gain the skills and experience required to progress within the investment management industry.

GAM’s London office is based in the heart of the City. Our office at 8 Finsbury Circus is located less than a few minutes’ walk from both Moorgate and Liverpool Street stations.

We are committed to working in the most productive, collaborative, and client-focused way. We believe that working flexibly and giving our teams the responsibility to decide the optimal arrangements to suit the kind of work they do is the best approach. We will therefore not be mandating a firm wide approach and anticipate that there will be a combination of employees choosing to work remotely or in the office or a blend of the two.

If you are looking for a 12-month trainee programme within a leading global investment management firm and you are ambitious and driven, with a strong desire to learn, then this could be the opportunity you are looking for.
