The Bank of England plays an important role in the UK economy. The country’s central bank, we’re involved in a wide range of high-profile and complex issues, including the setting of interest rates and managing the supply of banknotes.
As an organisation, we are focused on supporting the country’s monetary and financial stability. To succeed in this crucial objective, we have talented people from all backgrounds on the team – from security and facilities professionals, to experts in areas like economics, IT and HR.
For everyone working at the Bank, we offer an environment that’s rich in reward and support. Our culture is highly collaborative, and also very much focused on helping people to achieve a great work-life balance. Our flexible benefits are designed to let you choose the package that best suits you, for example, and we also have our own on-site gym and medical facilities within our building at the heart of the City.
As you would expect, training and development are high on the list of our priorities. To develop people’s skills and knowledge, we invest heavily in structured training programmes. These cover everything from an induction for all new joiners, through to the specialist training in technical and non-technical areas that will be available to you throughout your entire career.

“My current role is about identifying potential threats to the financial system, analysing the way shocks are transmitted to rest of the economy, and investigating how all this could affect businesses and individuals. It’s satisfying to see how my thinking helps to shape the Bank’s view on such important questions.”
“The country’s economy couldn’t function properly without enough notes in circulation. So it was great to be part of the team that decides exactly how many are needed across the country, throughout the year. It was a fantastic, eye-opening experience – one of the many I’ve had on the Bank’s graduate scheme.”
