Full job description
Walter Scott, the Edinburgh-based investment manager, runs a paid six-week summer internship from 21 June to 30 July 2027 in its Edinburgh offices. It is open to penultimate-year and final-year students from any degree subject, and interns are placed in either Investment Research or Operations, though they may state a preference in their cover letter. Applications are open from 17 August to 16 October 2026 and are made by emailing a CV and a cover letter answering a 200-word question about an achievement, with no online form or tests. Assessment days with interviews and group exercises are planned at the Edinburgh offices in November 2026. The FAQ answer on visas is worded ambiguously, saying a visa is needed to work in the UK on a permanent basis, so sponsorship status is unclear.
