At Rabobank, we are dedicated to make a substantial impact on the financial world. We are seeking ambitious and talented individuals to join our Wholesale Banking traineeship track. This is an exceptional opportunity to kickstart your career and become a future leader in corporate finance.

You and your job

Are you fascinated by the fast-paced world of financial markets? Do you thrive on solving complex problems, making data-driven decisions, and thinking strategically under pressure? Then this is your launchpad.

Join our Rabobank Traineeship Wholesale Banking track with a focus on Financial Markets.

From day one, you’ll work alongside seasoned professionals, gain hands-on experience in Sales, Relationship Management, and Capital Markets, and build the skills to become a future leader in finance.

In the dynamic environment of Capital Markets in the heart of Rabobank’s Investment Bank, you will be working on complex financing transactions with a high impact for Rabobank’s Dutch and global clients (corporates, traders, sponsors, financial institutions and supra sovereign agencies), advising and assisting them in structuring and arranging (sustainable) Capital Markets products like bonds, syndicated loans, private placements and structured products.

The vibrant environment of Sales and Relationship Management is key in providing our clients access to financial markets. At the dealing room floor, you will be surrounded by energetic colleagues constantly making a difference for our client base on the asset classes of interest rates, FX, commodities and money markets. Dependent on the team you are in, you will focus on corporates, investors, other financial institutions or supranationals. The teams work closely together to achieve the optimal result for client and bank. We discuss and offer our clients solutions that range from simple plain-vanilla transactions to complex hedge strategies, all in order to assure the risks of our clients are well mitigated.

Your self-starting and entrepreneurial attitude is essential and will be an asset to our teams. You are truly interested in banking and financial products, and you like to work in a fast-paced environment. You are able to work on many projects at the same time in close cooperation with others. You build contacts with clients and prospects of the bank and keep very well up to date on market developments. Next to this you are stress resilient, maintain a good internal network, and take the lead in the preparation and execution of pitches or transactions.
