The 12-months
trainee programme
During your 12-months trainee programme you will be prepared intensively for your future tasks at Universal Investment. You get to know our business model, especially our product units, from scratch and establish a wide network across our locations. The programme is suited to your individual interests and capabilities. You will be able to develop your talents, to shape your programme with us and to build up a broad knowledge. During your trainee programme we will decide together which department will be yours for the last phase and after your successful programme.
In addition, expert and interdisciplinary trainings will support you in your individual development. Furthermore, an assignment in our Luxemburgian or Polish, Krakow, subsidiary lasting at least two weeks will complete your trainee programme.
The trainee programme takes place mainly in Frankfurt am Main and is structured in three phases:
1st phase: You will develop a broad understanding of our business model through assignments in various departments (key units), in particular the product areas.
2nd phase: You have the possibility to supplement your programme with individual assignments in other departments (elective stations).
3rd phase: Together we decide in which department you will be employed and continue your career path with us after the successful completion of your trainee programme.
