2027 Risk Management Group Graduate Programme

Depending On Your Individual Role, You Could Be

• Monitoring, analyzing and explaining risk exposures arising from trading, lending and financing activities
• Reviewing financial statements, business models, positions, strategies and market or industry trends to identify key risk drivers
• Supporting credit assessments, model reviews, stress testing, scenario analysis and risk recommendations
• Working with business, trading, legal, operations and risk teams to understand transactions and provide independent review and challenge
• Helping enhance risk frameworks, policies, limits, reporting tools and regulatory or governance processes

During this twelve-month programme, you’ll be encouraged to examine problems from every angle, challenge the status quo and come up with new and innovative ways of progressing our business while being supported by an inclusive team.

As a Graduate, You Will

• Take part in an orientation to learn about Macquarie business groups, with your fellow analysts and expand your professional network.
• Receive formal training, including financial modelling and presentation skills, but at its core the program provides practical on-the-job learning to further your career. If you have ideas that have merit, we’ll give you the opportunity to develop and test them to create new possibilities.
• Build strong connections and work collaboratively while also partnering directly with our business leaders on meaningful and challenging work.
• Receive support from your manager and aligned mentor as you gain genuine insight into our industry.
• Be encouraged to give back through the Macquarie Group Foundation which provides support to hundreds of community organisations each year through financial support, volunteering and skills sharing.

What You Offer

You have a unique perspective. We want to hear it. We welcome applications from final-year undergraduate and master’s degree students who will graduate in January to July 2027.

We welcome students from a broad range of degree disciplines. Some placements may be best suited to those studying Mathematics, Philosophy Politics and Economics, Finance, Accounting, Engineering or Physics, with certain Model Risk roles requiring a relevant master’s degree.

• You are curious and analytical, with strong problem-solving skills and the ability to assess complex information and draw balanced conclusions.
• You have an interest in financial markets, businesses, regulation and risk, and are confident working with numerical information, financial statements, data or complex regulatory requirements.
• You can communicate complex concepts clearly, collaborate effectively and build strong working relationships.
• You are proactive, attentive to detail and able to manage competing priorities while delivering accurate, high-quality work. An interest in data analytics, technology or AI tools would be beneficial, and you would be comfortable using data and technology tools to enhance risk monitoring, reporting and decision making.

We love hearing from anyone inspired to build a better future with us, if you're excited about the role or working at Macquarie we encourage you to apply.
