BUTTERFIELD’S 2026 SCHOLARSHIP, SUMMER INTERNSHIP & GRADUATE TALENT PROGRAMME OPEN FOR APPLICATIONS

Butterfield has opened applications for all of its 2026 future talent programmes, including the Cayman Islands Undergraduate Scholarship, the Summer Internship Programme and the Graduate Talent Programme.

Mike McWatt, Managing Director of Butterfield in the Cayman Islands, said: “These programmes are part of our ongoing commitment to develop the next generation and invest in our community. We recognise that there are many routes to success and so our selection is based on more than just academics. We encourage all those who are interested and meet the criteria to find out more and submit an application.”

The Cayman Islands Undergraduate Scholarship awards US$30,000 to an outstanding student who is pursuing a first college or university business-related degree on a full-time basis overseas. The scholarship is tenable for up to four years with an opportunity to work at Butterfield during the holidays and after graduation if a suitable role exists. Eligible candidates are invited to apply via the Butterfield website by 1 March, 2026.

The paid Summer Internship Programme, scheduled to run between June and August, will see interns gain hands-on experience in the financial services industry and work alongside seasoned professionals in their fields. During their time, they will undergo formal training, contribute to meaningful projects and enjoy a close mentoring relationship. Eligible students can apply online at www.butterfieldgroup.com/careers/summer-internships by 1 March, 2026.

The next Graduate Talent Programme is also open for applications. This is a structured two-year programme, which begins in September 2026, and will see the successful applicants spend time in key business areas including Banking, Compliance and Risk, Asset Management and Trust, to gain practical experience and develop technical knowledge. They will also have an opportunity to embark upon an industry accredited qualification and work closely with experienced professionals and a dedicated team.
