Technical infrastructure
A summer at Baillie Gifford could transform your IT career before it even starts. As an independent, global investment management business, information systems underpin everything we do. That’s why we’re constantly investing in the development of our technical infrastructure and the team of professionals who bring that technology to life.

How to apply
Applications will open on Tuesday 3 September 2024.
We will be open and honest with you at every stage of the process, allowing you to ask questions throughout and giving you a clear idea of what it's like to work at Baillie Gifford.
Our general application resources will guide you through the process in more detail, but here is a summary.
Stage 1
To get started, we ask you to:
- complete a short online application form
- attach your CV
We will review your application to learn more about you and assess whether you have the ability, attributes, and curiosity to take on our internship. Like you, we are fans of generative AI. We are happy for you to use it responsibly as a tool to generate and communicate your ideas clearly, but don’t expect it to do the heavy lifting for you.
Stage 2
If selected, we will invite you to a Zoom interview with colleagues from our Information Systems Department. We will run through your CV with you and discuss the academic and professional choices that you have made, together with some critical skills-based questions, which are similar to competency questions.
Stage 3
The final stage is more in-depth. You will attend an assessment centre with other applicants, where we will assess your abilities in more detail through a second interview and some exercises. You’ll have the chance to ask questions and meet other colleagues, including our current trainees.
Applications open September 2024
When you’re ready, head to our early careers section on Workday to make an application.
