Our two-year graduate development programme is your opportunity, as an enterprising, motivated recent graduate or Master’s graduate, to help deliver Wellcome’s mission to improve health.
There are two different, full-time streams in our graduate programme:
Our two-year graduate programme enables you to develop core transferable skills and experience different teams across Wellcome – from research and policy to support functions and the Wellcome Collection.
It is your opportunity, as an enterprising, motivated recent graduate (with a Bachelor’s or Master’s), to help deliver Wellcome’s mission to improve health.
We want your experience on our general programme to be varied and fulfilling.
You will have the opportunity to work broadly across Wellcome, gaining all-round experience to better understand each area and how they all work together in support of our strategy, or you may be more specialised.
As an independent global charity, we fund our grants and other activities from a £36.8 billion investment portfolio.
As a member of Wellcome’s Investments Team, you’ll undertake investment analysis, learn about financial markets, develop your investment judgment, and understand how our long-term philosophy seeks to generate returns to support Wellcome’s mission.
You will have a front-row seat at the team’s weekly Investment Decision Meeting, regularly chaired by our Chief Investment Officer, where all the key portfolio decisions are debated and made. Through this, and through interacting with other members of the team, you will get substantial exposure to financial markets and the various asset classes in which Wellcome invests.
Our programme suits analytical and self-motivated individuals who can think on their feet, enjoy being challenged and are motivated to try new things and contribute their ideas from day one.
Soon after joining the team, you will map out a personal development plan with your manager. This plan will set out your specific training and development goals, to be obtained both through experience and through relevant training from internal and external providers.
Suggested areas of training include, but are not limited to, the below:
Graduates benefit hugely from being a part of the Investments Team weekly meeting from day one, where all the most important decisions about the portfolio are discussed and debated.

Wellcome’s Investments Graduate Scheme allows individuals to work on a wide range of projects across various asset classes and learn about what it means to be a truly long-term investor. The team has a very collaborative culture, and it is extremely rewarding to know that you are contributing to Wellcome’s mission.
