Job Description

INVESTMENT BANKING

We pride ourselves in our resourcefulness and work on a variety of initiatives. On any given day, our work could include advising a company on a cross-border merger, structuring the initial public offering of a subsidiary, refinancing an outstanding bond and more.

As a Division, Our Strategic Objectives Include

  • To be the world’s preeminent investment bank – trusted advisor, financier and risk manager for our clients on their most important transactions
  • Build long-term relationships with clients and bring them world-class execution by “delivering the firm” over time
  • Drive superior returns for our stakeholders
  • Be the employer of choice for all career levels by providing a highly dynamic, meritocratic, diverse and rewarding workplace

We are looking for a professional to join our Investment Banking team in London and use their skills and ideas to make an impact to the success of Goldman Sachs.

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.
