HSBC has a long history of employing ex-servicemen and women in the UK and our commitment was further strengthened when we signed the Armed Forces Covenant with the Ministry of Defence in 2013.
HSBC was set up in Hong Kong and Shanghai in 1865 to finance trade between China and Europe, with an office opening in London the same year. In 1992 it acquired the Midland Bank, significantly increasing its UK presence. Today we offer a full range of personal, private, commercial and investment banking services to individuals, businesses and institutions across the UK.
After serving in the military, working for a bank might not seem like the most obvious next step. However many of the skills you’ve developed in the military are transferrable to a career in banking and financial services. Attributes such as confidence, communication, leadership, and the ability to make the right decisions under pressure are just what we are looking for. Military service also embeds deep personal values, integrity and high standards which are essential to success in HSBC.
