Education Programmes
The Junior Trader annual Stock Market challenge started in 2008 and has since engaged with hundreds of budding traders – many of whom have since gone on to start careers in financial services. Drawing on career experience, speakers deliver a short series of lectures providing a whistle-stop tour of investment and career roles in The City, after which student teams simulate a trading exercise.
This provides educational institutions with a structured approach to financial services education, real world experience for students and a unique behind the scenes interaction with leading professionals in the City.
Its addictive and competitive!
Partner Institutions
Large Financial Institutions rarely offer the work experience to students under 18 due to safeguarding. It is a shame because this valuable experience spawned many of our careers. Through the structured approach Junior Trader offers, Partner Institutions can offer unique behind the scenes experiences for the Junior Trader Alumni, and play a part in improving diversity and accessibility in the city.
Speaker and Judge opportunities
As JT grows, we require more inspirational speakers to go into schools and deliver our programme alongside telling your own story. This is your opportunity to tackle diversity, give back to your old school and inspire the next generation.
