Those attributes describe our people: in every region and business, our employees power our ongoing business success and our positive impact on society. As an employer of choice, it’s our job to build – and sustain – an innovative, diverse, and inclusive workplace that brings out the best in our talent, wherever they are on their career journey.

UBS Cadetships have given more than 180 students in Australia a competitive edge in the workforce and the programs are tailored to the individual – focusing on your study commitments, lifestyle, and needs. With continuous learning and development, our programs are a great way to start your career and grow your network. UBS cadets can work across the business in an area which you think is your best fit – Technology, Global Markets, Global Banking, Asset Management, Operations or Finance.

In 2023 UBS Australia was awarded the ‘Best Investment Bank’ in Australia and New Zealand by Euromoney and ‘Best Investment Bank’ in Australia by FinanceAsia, an award UBS has held for 19 of the last 20 years.
