Applications for our 2027 Technology Summer Internships will open on 15 September 2026.
Internship programmes
You need to be in your penultimate year of a technology-related degree to apply.
During the internship, you may have the opportunity to be considered for a place on the following year’s graduate programme.
Software Engineering & Innovation
This programme allows you to work across the whole software development lifecycle as you learn about our pioneering Shared Services department and Baillie Gifford as a firm. Discover how our blend of technology drives the business forward in the fast-evolving investment management industry.
Cloud, Infrastructure & Security
This programme will allow you to get hands-on and gain real-life work experience. Our diverse range of vendors means you might work with the likes of Microsoft, Dell, Palo Alto, HashiCorp or ServiceNow, as you develop your technical support and systems resiliency skills.
We're curious, patient, and brave
At Baillie Gifford, we pride ourselves on these characteristics and search for candidates who share them.
- Curious - We’re looking for people who want to learn, not just during the programme but throughout their careers.
- Patient - Being independent allows us to focus on long-term thinking, without the pressure of short-term demands.
- Brave - We’re comfortable taking a different view and standing by it, even when it’s not the popular choice.
