Working at Investec: a different kind of opportunity
As an Investec colleague, we want you to feel happy, healthy, balanced and fulfilled, at home or beyond. Here are the benefits you can expect:
Being healthy means taking care of yourself, your body and your lifestyle holistically. Eating healthily, keeping active, sleeping well and doing what makes you feel your best.
You will have access to excellent healthcare choices, including private medical insurance, 24-hour GP access, onsite physiotherapists (in London), wellbeing subsidy, dental plans, income protection and regular eye tests.
Being present means taking care of your mental wellbeing, so you feel empowered to realise your potential and able to cope with the stresses of life.
We have onsite and telephone-based clinical psychologists, as well as a professional and a confidential 24/7 Employee Assistance Programme that is always there to help.
Being you means bringing your whole self to work. Balancing and integrating your personal, family, financial and work life to create greater harmony and connection.
To ensure you feel valued and rewarded, we will support you with an attractive salary and bonus scheme. We also offer a generous pension scheme, and independent free pension and mortgage advice. Should the worst happen, we also offer a death-in-service benefit.
Also, to support you and your loved ones through the many life stages, we offer generous parental and dependant’s leave policies, and a series of events and activities to help you navigate life changes.
Annual leave starts at 25 days and increases the longer you stay with us. We also offer part-time and flexible working options when possible.
Being connected means taking care of and feeling connected to your social wellbeing. It’s a sense of belonging, purpose and relationship in the workplace, your local community and your environment.
If you’re passionate about contributing to the community, you’re in the right place. Here you can take up to two paid days a year to work with our community partners. We also arrange fun and meaningful volunteering opportunities throughout the year.
You can also join one of the many networks at Investec, such as the award-winning group of environmental champions, Team Green, and our diversity and inclusion networks - Gender Balance, LGBTQ+, Multicultural and YoungMinds.
We also recognise the commitment and loyalty of our colleagues with referral schemes and long-service awards.

Not everybody here has a financial background but they’re all self-starters. Everybody collaborates and drives things forward.

Case study: a career story
Arjun Chopra joined Investec more than 14 years ago on our very first graduate programme and now heads up our Private Capital team, which lends money to high-net-worth individuals, business owners and entrepreneurs. During that time he’s worked in different teams, and in different countries, including India. He says: “Being able to move around and learn new skills at Investec has given me different perspectives to draw on. People’s vision often starts to get broader as they spend more time here and it drives entrepreneurial thinking. From day one I’ve never felt restricted or unable to have a point of view.”
