Shape the numbers. Break the mould

At Lloyds Banking Group, Finance is less about adding things up and more about making things happen. Big things.

It’s the engine room that powers us. It’s strategy. It’s insight. It’s action. And if you’re one of our Finance apprentices, you’re not just along for the ride. You’re driving.

From the moment you join, you’re in the thick of it - shaping decisions, driving change and helping us deliver for millions of customers.

See the big picture

Think of this as your 5‑year all‑access pass to the inner workings of the UK’s biggest bank. You’ll rotate through different teams - in Finance and beyond - to see every angle of how we run the show.

You could be:

• Keeping us on track in Core Finance with monthly reporting, budgeting and forecasting.
• Spotting the fine print in Audit & Assurance so nothing slips through the cracks.
• Being our safety net in Risk & Governance.
• Plotting the big moves in Strategic Business Management.
• Steering the money in Taxation & Treasury.
• Or breaking out of Finance entirely - working with other business areas, getting closer to customers and seeing how we Help Britain Prosper.

And you’ll collect stories, skills and lifelong friends along the way.

Swap theory for action

This isn’t “sit quietly and take notes” learning. This is “grab a seat at the table” learning.

You'll be forecasting performance or producing key reports. Analysing risk, advising on investments, and solving complex problems alongside multi‑skilled teams of finance and tech experts. All while gaining a 360° view of how finance powers the Group.

You’ll master how to create, verify and review accurate, timely financial information. And grow your soft skills like collaboration, communication and influencing (the good kind).

Plus, you’ll get your hands on the kind of tech that makes old‑school spreadsheets look like cave paintings - data analytics platforms, next‑gen reporting tools and more.

And because we’re big on backing talent, you’ll have plenty of chances to show what you can do - and surprise even yourself - early on.

Your future, fully funded

We’ll cover the cost of your degree and pay you a salary while you learn, giving you the opportunity to earn a fully funded master’s degree in accountancy and become a Chartered Accountant.

By the end, you won’t just understand Finance. You’ll have the skills, confidence and qualifications to take your career anywhere. Plus, a few extra letters after your name to show off.

And because we know talent comes from everywhere, we welcome people from all backgrounds. Whatever your story, there’s a place for you here.
