Rathbones: does its summer work experience, scotland sponsor a UK visa?

No published policySummer Work Experience, Scotland

Unconfirmed. Rathbones publishes no sponsorship policy for its summer work experience, scotland, so we cannot state a firm answer. This is a short Scotland only scheme, two weeks in August, running in the Edinburgh and Glasgow offices. It is open to penultimate year university students and Rathbones states that no specific experience is required. Participants spend time with both the Investment Management and the Financial Planning teams and work on a case study project, so it covers the two sides of a wealth manager rather than one desk. It is best read as a low cost way into Rathbones for Scottish based students, and it sits usefully next to the Graduate Academy, which also runs in Edinburgh and Glasgow. There is no published salary, no application window and no statement on work permits.
