Technology Graduate 2023

One of the main draw cards for the AMP graduate program was the opportunity to rotate into different roles around the business. Technology is such a broad field and coming straight out of uni, it can be hard to know exactly what you want to do. Since joining AMP, I have learnt so much about the corporate world, the business itself and the financial services industry in general.Since joining AMP, I have had so many amazing opportunities that really confirm I made the right decision joining this program. The support we receive for professional development is unparalleled and motivates me to constantly challenge myself and seek opportunities to step out of my comfort zone.  Finally, the people here create a nurturing and supportive culture unlike any other, you truly feel like a valued employee.

Accounting & Finance Graduate 2023

Bachelor of Commerce (Accounting) from Macquarie University 

I chose the AMP Graduate Program because I recognised the value in the rotational style of the program. The ability to explore a variety of business areas whilst developing a diverse range of skills is paramount to someone out of university into the corporate workforce and the support within the graduate program and larger business as a whole is both consistent and always constructive. Thus far in the graduate program I've been able to participate in Senior leadership forums, team building activates both within the graduate program and with my rotational teams and have had the privilege of giving back to the community through several programs run through the AMP charitable Foundation all of which have been pivotal experiences in my early career development. Being a part of AMP as a graduate you really feel like you’re part of something bigger, whilst also always getting the critical support that the amazing culture of AMP provides.

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.

The AMP technology graduate program offers amazing opportunities to set me up as a graduate who isn't too sure of their exact career direction. The program's rotations really stand out to me due to the incredible variety they offer. From financial crime to app development to test automation, there are so many career paths available. Each rotation presents a fresh set of challenges and exposes graduates to different areas of technology, ensuring continuous growth and development.

Secondly, the level of support within the program is exceptional. From the graduate champs and buddies to the approachable managers, there is a strong support system in place without the feeling of micromanaging. Moreover, the frequent networking events ensure that I am always connected and never left behind.

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.

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.
