Transforming the Bank

Transforming the Bank is a key strategic priority for Bank of Ireland. At the heart of this transformation are our technology platforms, data capabilities, and the digital interfaces our customers use to interact with and purchase our products.

As Ireland's largest bank, we're responding to the growing demand for digital-first financial services by expanding and evolving our technological foundation. We're building a world-class, diverse technology team to deliver meaningful improvements in the banking experience for millions of customers - and we're looking for talented individuals to help us drive that momentum.

Programme Overview

Our graduate programme offers a rotational experience across different areas of the Bank. Each of the three rotations is built to help you develop the critical skills needed to accelerate your growth and career progression.

  • Strengthen your management, interpersonal, and technical capabilities while contributing to business-critical projects in a fast-paced environment.
  • Empowered to explore new experiences, collaborate across teams, and support transformation initiatives aligned with our Group strategy.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
