About us: Here at Sparx, we’re working flat out to investigate
scientifically what makes the best learning experience. By
using real-time data to drive an evidence based approach to
education, we’re developing an extraordinary new technology for
the classroom that is redefining the limits of what young people
can achieve and is helping us figure out what works (and what
doesn’t) in the field of education. Our platform for Maths uses
custom built content and a powerful, data-driven web and mobile
framework to deliver a tailored set of exercises, games and
incentives for students.
Graduates sought: Bright and determined graduates studying
computer science, statistics, mathematics, engineering or the
sciences with at least a 2:1
Visa sponsorship: Unfortunately Sparx are not able to sponsor
VISAs.
Graduate salary: £30k + depending on qualifications and experience.
Vacation work: We offer 8-week summer internships to those
studying computer science, statistics, mathematics, engineering
or the sciences, achieving at least a 2:1. Being an intern at Sparx
isn’t about taking a back seat. Our interns are bright, motivated
and integral members of the team.
Application advice: The deadline for intern applications is 8th
January 2017. Graduate applications are open all year.

STUDENT SOCIETY

The Oxford Banking Initiative is Oxford’s leading finance
society, providing members with access to a soft introduction
to the financial sector through soft-skill workshops; office
trips; teaching students to read and summarise financial
market news; a mentorship scheme with older students that
have already completed internships. Moreover, for those
students that want to engage into more advanced modelling,
we encourage students to apply to the Oxford Finance Labs,
run by the Private Equity Institute at Said Business School.
We want to bring a more diverse range of applicants to
the financial industry - moving beyond only those doing
Economics-related degrees.
OBI is a part of the Oxford Student Foundation - a network
of student-run Initiatives focusing on hands-on experience:
Oxford Microfinance Initiative
Oxford Consulting Initiative
