Overview

Our 2025 Accountant & Tax Analyst Programme is a 6-month rotational programme for soon to be and recent graduates. This programme provides a blend of education, skill building, and exposure to Susquehanna’s trading and the capital markets industry. It will prepare you for a full-time accounting role that immediately impacts Susquehanna’s business. You will train alongside the trading operations, compliance, and risk teams to gain in-depth exposure to various business areas in Susquehanna. Your rotations may include Accounting, Tax, Financial Operations, Trade Support, Equity Finance, Compliance and Risk Monitoring. Upon completing the programme, you will be based within the accounting team, where you will be responsible for production of management and statutory accounts based on an in-depth understanding of the business and products traded.

• Real Impact: You will work collaboratively on daily tasks and improvements which are key to the ongoing success of the business.

Our Programme:

As a part of our Accountant & Tax Analyst Programme, you will have the opportunity to blend your interests in accountancy and the financial markets.
