Property and Procurement Internship Program
As a Property and Procurement intern, you will be exposed to the different ways our groups support the bank and interact internally on a day-to-day basis. You will learn and develop a wide variety of technical and soft skills. Through participating in our 10-week program, interns will have the opportunity to shadow senior level leaders, interact with interns across alternate business lines and apply the skillset they develop to a real-life business case in which they will present to their prospective team. Interns who join the program and are strong performers will have the opportunity to be hired for a full-time role within the organization following graduation.
