LSEG is at the forefront of trading services – a fundamental part of the financial and transactional services that support and enhance the development of businesses and economies worldwide. Successful graduates will join LSEG’s Markets division on a rotational programme, becoming part of a dynamic team that powers global financial markets and helps organisations navigate risk with confidence.
