Digital Business Services

Welcome to our programme, we're so excited to have you here. 

Most people know of HSBC as a top career choice for finance professionals, but our graduate opportunities go far wider than that. Our Digital Business Services (DBS) division offers rewarding careers for graduates as Engineers, Data Analysts, Cyber Security Specialists, Business Analysts and in a broad range of operational roles.

This experience gives you the opportunity to get an insight into what life might be like as a graduate working across the operations and data functions of DBS. Through four tasks, you'll practice key skills such as data analysis, project and process management, communication and presentation. The number of tasks you do is up to you. 

At HSBC, we don’t just focus on what we do, we focus on how we do it. We have a Conduct Approach that complements our Purpose and Values – this guides us all to take responsibility to do the right thing and focus on the impact we have for our customers and the financial markets in which we operate:

• We understand our customers’ needs and design, market and sell products and services that recognise their long-term interests
• We provide products and services that offer a fair exchange of value and do not undermine market competition
• We service our customers’ ongoing needs and ensure products and standards of service continue to have a positive impact
• We act with integrity in the financial markets we operate in
• We operate resiliently and securely to avoid harm to customers and markets

As you work through the tasks in this programme, acting within these principles will ensure you embody the expectations of a HSBC employee.

The programme does not form part of an official recruitment process. It has been designed to broaden and deepen your knowledge of the role/business area and help you decide whether this is a career path you're keen to pursue. At the end of each task, you can compare your work against an example answer, furthering your learning and development. We hope this is a useful resource for you as you explore career options and a potential role at HSBC.
