What can we offer you?

LGT Graduate Program

During 18 months (01.09.2020 - 28.02.2022) you will be comprehensively prepared for your target function. You will therefore spend the majority of the program in your team. The program can be completed in Liechtenstein, Zurich, Vienna, Hong Kong or Singapore.

Possible target functions for trainees are:

Group Controller

Business Manager
Marketing Manager

Training and development
During the introductory week, a two-week seminar in the Singapore financial center, a volunteering experience and other exciting events, you will broaden your expertise and develop your social and personal skills. Discussions with external specialists and LGT representatives will give you an opportunity to build your professional network.

Internships
In addition to the training and development opportunities, you will do two to three internships lasting several weeks that will give you insights into other areas of LGT.

Support
The trainees are supported throughout the program by their superiors, the HR Learning & Development Team and a mentor. These contacts accompany and advise them in their personal and professional development.

LGT IT Trainee Program

The IT Trainee Program lasts two years (01.09.2020 to 31.08.2022), during which you will work in up to four different placements within our IT departments. We offer the program annually at our Service Center in Bendern, Liechtenstein.

We offer training in two fields:

Information Systems Operations (ISO)
(target functions are: e.g. IT Service Owner, IT Data Scientist, etc.)
Information Systems Technics (IST)
(target functions are: e.g. Systems Engineer, Database Administrator, etc.)

Training and development
During the introductory week, a volunteering experience and a placement abroad within LGT, you will gain valuable experience and develop your social and personal skills. Your placement abroad will give you the opportunity to build your professional network and gain intercultural experience.

Placements
Depending on the target function, you will complete up to four placements of approx. six months each during which you will become familiar with the IT departments that you have selected with your line manager.

Support
Your line manager and mentor will be on hand to support you and answer your questions during the entire program. An employee from the HR Learning & Development Team will also be assigned to you.
