Susquehanna is looking for penultimate year students who are interested in using decision science to solve problems in the world around them to join our 2026 Quantitative Trader Internship Program.

Susquehanna's Trading Internship offers a unique opportunity to learn about quantitative trading. Working from our Sydney office, our interns will experience how our traders use decision science, game theory, and technology to make trading decisions. Our education program combines both classroom and on the 'trading desk' training. The goal of the program is to provide interns with a deep exposure to trading, so they can decide if it is what they want to pursue full-time.

What We Offer

  • Classroom Education: Susquehanna's in-house education programme is widely recognised as being the best in the industry. You will attend regular seminars to learn about options and the decision-making strategies that our traders employ.
  • Decision making:using game theory, decision science, poker, and other strategy games. It's true what you've heard
  • Mock Trading: practice what you have learnt
  • Real impact: you will work closely with our traders on real-world projects that directly impact our trading business.
  • Culture: Our culture allows employees of every level to thrive. We are not your typical trading firm – the environment is casual, collaborative and we focus on continuous development, no matter how long you've been in Susquehanna.
  • Perks: Based in Sydney, on the top two floors of Tower 1 in Barangaroo, our space provides beautiful harbor views of the Opera House and Harbour Bridge. To name a few of our favourite perks, our employees make the most of our free onsite catering, game room, and social events (company-wide parties, poker tournaments, and Friday night socials).
