Compliance Upskilling Accelerator
Glasgow
As a Barclays Compliance Upskilling Accelerator, you will join an exciting new re-skilling initiative designed to bring talented, diverse candidates with a variety of experience and backgrounds into the Compliance function. Working within either our Compliance Assurance or Investigations teams, you will be given specific on the job training during the first 6-12 months as well as more modular based learning via a Compliance curriculum, setting yourself up to develop a broad risk management mindset.
Barclays is one of the world's largest and most respected financial institutions, with 329 years of success, quality and innovation behind us. We offer careers that provide endless opportunity – helping millions of individuals and businesses thrive, and creating financial and digital solutions that the world now takes for granted.
We are currently in the early stages of implementing a hybrid working environment, which means that many colleagues spend part of their working hours at home and part in the office, depending on the nature of the role they are in. We’re flexible on how this works and it may continue to change and evolve. Depending on your team, typically this means that colleagues spend a minimum of between 20% to 60% of their time in the office, which could be over a week, a month, or a quarter. However, some colleagues may choose to spend more time in the office over a typical period than their role type requires. We also have a flexible working process where, subject to business needs, all colleagues globally can request work patterns to reflect their personal circumstances. Please discuss the detail of the working pattern options for the role with the hiring manager.
