Our clients range from individuals, to businesses of all sizes, high net worth families and large multinational corporates and institutions. We’re passionate about creating growth in Africa. Bringing true, meaningful value to our clients and the communities we serve and creating a real sense of purpose for you.

Standard Bank is the largest bank in Africa and our highly visible brand, award-winning service, and strong global presence helps us maintain our market-leading position. We place huge value on the talent of our people to drive our continued success, and to support our plans for growth.

How our people think and feel about their work correlates directly with how satisfied our clients are, and how successful we are in delivering our strategy and performance aspirations. The People and Culture team in Standard Bank are continuously finding new ways to make our people’s dreams possible.

Our purpose in People & Culture is to enable people to become the best version of themselves to drive our continent's growth. So, we're looking for talented types who align closely with our People Promise; individuals who are driven to win, empathetic and supportive, and committed to unleashing Africa’s potential. 

You'll help us bring our purpose to life and ensure that we add value in the present –while also anticipating and capitalising on the future world of work.

The 18-month programme consists of structured work exposure and has a strong focus on learning-on-the-job, self-learning and technical training.
