Scholarship benefits
Scholars will be offered up to two ten-week paid internships at Lloyds, one of which must be taken during the summer holiday before their final year, for which they will receive a pro-rated salary of approximately £18,000.
Each scholar will be assigned a mentor from the Lloyds Banking Group business’ senior management and a peer buddy who has gone through the company’s existing graduate scheme to help with CV and interview advice.
Scholars will also have the chance to learn valuable transferable skills to help boost their employability through lectures, workshops and events run by Lloyds Banking Group.
Recipients of a scholarship will be required to take on 100 hours a year community volunteering work organised by their University in conjunction with Lloyds.
