This is BlackRockâs two-year full-time analyst programme for the EMEA region, designed for early-career candidates who are finishing university and want to begin their careers in a global financial services environment. The programme is built to help analysts connect their individual interests and strengths with BlackRockâs mission, principles, and purpose, while giving them practical exposure to the firmâs work and the chance to contribute to its wider goal of improving financial well-being for more people.
Programme overview
The programme begins with an orientation that introduces participants to BlackRockâs purpose, the way the business operates, and the companyâs strategic priorities. It also provides insight into what an analystâs day-to-day experience looks like. After this initial period, analysts move into their teams and continue developing through ongoing learning, training, and professional development opportunities. The programme is intended to create a meaningful, long-term impact both for the participant and for the firm.
BlackRock states that the analyst programme is open to candidates from any degree background, as long as they are graduating within the specified window. The intake is for the 2027 recruitment year, and the start date is planned for August, although earlier starts may be considered.
