Who is Zopa?

At Zopa, we’re shaping the future of finance.

We offer simple loans and smart investments that help people take control of their finances and do more with their money. In the 12 years we’ve been in business, we’ve helped more than 60,000 people lend over £2 billion to 246,000 UK consumers.

And our journey’s only just beginning. In November 2016 we announced our plans to build a next generation bank so that we can bring a greater range of smart, ethical finance products to even more people.

What is a Graduate Analyst?

Analysts are the people that come up with strategies to drive our business forward. They’re analytical, confident with numbers, and have a passion for problem solving. They use data to generate insights, and then use these insights to identify opportunities in the market and think creatively to come up with new strategies and products. They work closely with our tech teams to figure out how we can use technology to come up with new ways of doing things. They then present their findings to our senior leaders, and then see their projects through to completion.

What will you be doing?

You could be working on a huge range of different projects across the business, from figuring out how we should enter new markets or what our new products should look like, to deciding our pricing strategy or optimising how much we should bid in our Google sponsored search campaigns.

Where your career could go:

As an analyst at Zopa, your career could follow one of several career paths, depending on your interests, skills and experiences. If strategy and tech is your thing, you could progress into a product management role as one of our squad leads. If you would like to stay closer to the numbers, you might go into management in our Credit Risk team. You might even become a Data Scientist if you develop the right toolset. We are committed to moving your career forwards and developing Zopa’s leaders of tomorrow.

Requirements

Specific requirements:

Most of our graduates have a 2:1 or better in a numerate subject from a top university. What’s more important to us is that you’re:

  • A doer. If you see a better way of doing things you make it happen.
  • Smart, numerate, analytical and great at problem solving.
  • Passionate about business and technology

Benefits

  • Our competitive base salary is £40k for graduates.
  • We also offer a generous £5k sign on bonus, plus a discretionary end of year bonus.
  • Additionally, we provide you with private medical insurance, a pension scheme, discounted gym membership, a cycle to work scheme, and 25 days of holiday.

The Application Process:

  • January 5th deadline (applications will be continuously reviewed, so please don't feel you have to wait until the last minute!)
  • 1st round phone interviews will be happening between December 1st and January 19th
  • Assessment days will be happening between January 29th and February 23rd

Simple loans, smart investments.
That’s us. That’s what we do.

Simple loans, smart investments.

That’s us. That’s what we do.

More than a decade ago our founders saw a simple problem: people borrowing money were being charged high rates and those able to invest money were getting low returns. Everyone was losing out.

Our founders wanted to change this and knew that by matching borrowers and investors directly, both would be better off. Their goal was, and still is, to make money simple and fair.

Fair rates, managed risks, and better rewards. That's how we're shaping the future of finance.

Our name, Zopa, stands for ‘Zone of Possible Agreement’ – a negotiating term that identifies the bounds within which agreement can be reached between two parties.

Want to help us shape the future of finance?

We’re growing faster than ever. Especially now we’ve announced plans to apply to launch a bank.
