The AMP Financial Services graduate program offers a wide variety of rotational opportunities to really set one up with broad understanding of the business and value chain whilst enabling you to engage in hands-on tasks. The diversity of the rotations really allowed me to draw from both my Finance and Psychology background and encourage my professional development. The warmth and support I've received from everybody at AMP provide a seamless transition from studying to fulltime work. I found the program to be well developed and focused on building each graduate up with a strong support network through establishing meaningful relationship with other graduates, rotation managers and supervisors. Furthermore, I have been able to collaborate with many others who are willing to share their knowledge and experience, giving me the opportunity to develop my own skillset across different projects and initiatives.

Michael
2022 Accounting & Finance Graduate
Bachelor of Commerce and Bachelor of Advanced Studies (Accounting and Finance) from the University of Sydney
The AMP Graduate Program has been a very rewarding and insightful experience thus far, with a highlight being the ability to rotate through teams across different business units. The opportunity to rotate has provided me the chance to work and see how various segments of the corporate finance teams work together to develop and enact AMP’s overall strategy as well as serve its stakeholders. By working in different teams, you are also able to view the business from different angles developing a diverse skillset as well as a unique and broader way of thinking.
So far in the program, my managers and peers have supported me so that I can always have a meaningful impact upon tasks within the team. I have been entrusted to take lead on my own projects, providing me the opportunity to make decisions and enact my own vision. These opportunities presented by both AMP and my team have aided in the development of my technical capabilities as well as my personal development and refinement of soft skills.

What really drew me to the AMP Graduate Program has been the rotations available within the Technology stream. It has opened doors for me to experience different areas of the business that I would otherwise be unable to be a part of. I’ve been able rotate within areas such as Enterprise Data, Cyber Security and Group Analytics, and have found that I’ve been able to make valuable contributions with the pieces of work I have been assigned.

Ivan
Financial Services Graduate 2021
Bachelor of Commerce (Major in Financial Economics) and Bachelor of Information System from the University of New South Wales
In a nutshell, my experience at AMP in the Financial Services stream has been awesome. I was attracted to this stream due to its broad rotation offering, which enables one to travel across the value chain and gain a diverse understanding across AMPA and the broader financial system. To this end, I have found that everyone I have met has been incredibly willing to share knowledge and to offer opportunities to contribute on a broad range of projects. I continually have the chance to learn how the different business areas fit together in terms of operations and value to our clients and broader society. Most importantly for me, I have had opportunity right from the start to own my role, hold a stake in the projects I contribute to, and tangibly increase both my technical and soft skill set. The people I work with, the learning opportunities, and the actual work itself, have made my time at AMP an illuminating experience so far.
Kavya
Accounting & Finance Graduate 2021
Bachelor of Applied Finance/Bachelor of Commerce (Professional Accounting) from Macquarie University
I chose AMP’s Graduate Program because I recognised the need to rotate and explore multiple business areas and functions and get a sense of the diversity in teams across this prestigious financial services institution. Some of these areas include Group Planning and Performance, Internal Audit and Statutory reporting, alongside electives to your own liking. Graduating out of University, it can be daunting putting your finger on a single area to specialise in considering the broad financial service environment, and choosing this program allows me to personalise my path to my dream career. There is an ongoing investment in the graduates and this is something that has motivated me to allow myself to exit my comfort zone and accrue professional and personal development.
Cass
AMP Capital Graduate Alumni 2020
Bachelor of Marketing and Media from Macquarie University
Current role: Sustainability Analyst
When I graduated from university, I didn’t want to pigeon hole myself in any particular role. The rotations in the Graduate Program at AMP let me test out different parts of the business that I was interested in until I was confident that I knew where I wanted to work more permanently. At first, I was interested in the flexibility that offered, later I realised that the experience in different rotations also gives you a unique understanding of the business and how that fits together. This is extremely valuable moving into any permanent role, and the network you build up along the way makes that a smoother process.
Kelly
Technology Gradate Alumni 2020
Bachelor of Commerce-International Business and Decision Science from Macquarie University
Current role: Data Analyst
Prior to joining AMP, I was looking for an opportunity which would allow me to explore my interests in Technology because I wasn’t sure which area of Tech I’d like to pursue. Since joining the program, I have been able to do that, and more.
The program has since offered a wide range of rotations across multiple areas of the business including in Digital, Cyber Security, Data, Cloud, and Automation. This has enabled me to gain exposure to diverse programs of work where I have been able to take ownership and really contribute in a meaningful way.
Ciara
Technology Graduate Alumni 2017
Bachelor of Mathematics (Advanced) majoring in Mathematics and Computer Science from the University of Sydney
Current role: Threat Intel Specialist
Starting in the AMP graduate program, I was given a lot of opportunity to move around different technology teams and see how different parts of the business operate. I was able to own pieces of my own work end to end and see real results. When I started at AMP, I wasn’t sure what I wanted to do longer term, but the graduate program was integral in helping me work that out. I rotated into the Cyber Security team in my last rotation and have been there ever since. I’ve been able to progress and been given opportunities to grow and improve constantly. Without the graduate program, I don’t think I would’ve found a career that I’m so passionate about, in cyber.
