Welcome to Barclays Careers

Barclays is a global financial services provider. Though proud of our national heritage, we're no longer just a British bank. We have grown to become one of the world's largest global financial organisations.

Our 123,000 employees move, lend, invest and protect money for more than 27 million customers and clients worldwide.

We have a clear view of where growth will come from over the coming years. While there will be significant growth opportunities in the UK, we also see many internationally. 2006, for example, was a record year for Barclays with profit before tax standing at £7.136 billion; up 35 per cent on 2005. Around half of our 2006 profit came from outside the UK.

When you think of Barclays, what comes to mind?

Chances are, it's our high street branches up and down the UK. But did you know that today's Barclays is a global financial organisation which includes other big name businesses such as Barclaycard and Woolwich? And that respected investment banking and asset management companies also make up part of our group? Or that we have a vast IT infrastructure that demands constant support and development from a wide range of professionals. A quick look around this site will show you just how broad our business has become and how many great career options we've got to offer.

This site should also give you some idea of what it would be like to work here and furthermore provide an insight into personal and professional development opportunities so you can judge whether this is the right place for you. If you do decide we're made for each other, you can apply for a position online.
