Lloyds offers exit from big smoke
Lloyds TSB has opportunities for derivatives sales staff interested in working outside London.
The UK bank is recruiting FX, interest rate and credit derivatives staff to work in Bristol, Leeds and Birmingham. It also has several opportunities in London.
Christine Gregory, manager in the financial services team at Robert Walters, who is dealing with the openings tells eFinancialCareers.com the bank has four to six vacancies across all offices to work in the financial institutions, global corporations and pan-European corporate sales teams. It's most interested in hearing from staff with over one year's experience.
"For the London roles they're interested in hearing from people with maths skills," says Gregory. She says language skills are preferable bvut not essential: "Lloyds have a strong presence in France, Spain and Italy and need people to sell to clients in those countries."
Derivatives sales people who do choose to work in the UK outside London are likely to be paid slightly less than their City counterparts, says Gregory. Just how much less has yet to be finalized.
