About Vanguard

Vanguard is an investment company unlike any other. It was founded by Jack Bogle in the US in 1975 on a simple but revolutionary idea: that an investment company should manage its funds solely in the interests of its clients. Jack helped bring investing to the masses with the index fund. Index funds do not pick individual shares or bonds to beat the market. They track the performance of the entire market. Or as Jack put it, "Don't look for the needle in the haystack. Just buy the haystack!”. We have stood for low-cost, uncomplicated investing ever since. Over the last 45 years people have come round to our way of thinking and more than 30 million investors worldwide now trust us with their money.

Technology at Vanguard

We aim to build the most advanced platforms that serve the interests of our clients globally. As part of the technology graduate program, you will learn how technology supports company initiatives and develop an understanding of Vanguard's systems, platforms, products, and services.

The Technology Graduate Program is designed for you to build a strong technical foundation, business acumen, and leadership skills while gaining hands-on experience in the IT division. With technology driving changes in Machine Learning, Robotics, Artificial Intelligence and Data Analytics, there are many ways for smart, ambitious and innovative candidates to get involved and continue to push forward in our drive to serve our clients.

What we are looking for

A degree in Computer Science or a related subject

Strong technical foundation and aptitude in one or more programming languages

Exceptional organisational agility and attention to detail.

Initiative and ability to work independently.

Tenacity: Demonstrated drive and motivation to succeed.

Professionalism, maturity, and humility.

What you will get in return

Learn how technology supports company initiatives and develop an understanding of Vanguard's systems, platforms, products, and services

Formal training curriculum for all participants with one-on-one coaching and development with program leaders and rotation managers

Build a strong foundation in technical skills, conceptual thinking, and knowledge of Vanguard & the wider asset management industry.

Flexible working and fast paced environment. A focus on innovation and doing things differently

How We Work

We believe our mission-driven and highly collaborative culture is a critical enabler to support long-term client outcomes and enrich the employee experience.
