About the role
The Finance Industrial Placement Programme is for penultimate year students with a year in industry as a compulsory or optional element of their degree programme. The Programme will begin in June 2026 and is for 13 months. You will be placed into one team within the Finance division throughout your placement.
The Finance Division reports to Morgan Stanley’s Chief Financial Officer. It is the guardian of the firm’s books and records, and serves as an advisor to Morgan Stanley’s various businesses and senior management team. In addition, the Division is a major contributor to reducing and managing risk across the firm.
As the firm’s financial watchdog, Finance crunches the numbers. But it does more than just keep an eye on the books. Team members meet regularly and build relationships with the firm’s industry and government regulators, provide information to the outside business community, and give the firm’s management and divisions the planning assistance and reliable financial information they can use to advance the firm’s goals.
Want to find out more?
Please join us for an Information Session on Tuesday 7th October, 4pm-5pm which will include a divisional overview followed by a panel of Finance representatives and the opportunity for a Q&A which will provide a helpful oversight of the 2026 Finance Industrial Placement Programme.
This program is no longer active.
