25x FSCA Internship Programme 2025/26 Now Open

The Financial Sector Conduct Authority (FSCA) invites suitably qualified graduates to apply for their Internship Programme 2025/26 (X25 Posts). The closing date for applications is 10 October 2025. This one-year internship gives young people the chance to gain valuable skills, knowledge, and experience in the financial services sector.

If you are a recent graduate with no work experience and want to kick-start your career, this is an opportunity you do not want to miss.


Why Consider the FSCA Internship?

The FSCA plays a very important role in South Africa’s economy. It supervises financial institutions to ensure they are fair, transparent, and treat customers properly. By joining this internship, you will be exposed to the world of financial regulation and supervision, helping you build a strong foundation for your career.

This programme is more than just training. It is a chance to be part of a structured learning experience where you will:

  • Work under the guidance of a dedicated mentor.
  • Gain hands-on experience in a division that matches your studies and career goals.
  • Receive training that develops your skills and improves your readiness for the job market.

The internship also aims to create a pipeline of future professionals who can contribute to transforming South Africa’s financial sector.


What You Will Gain from the Programme

The FSCA internship is designed to give you real exposure to the industry while helping you grow as a professional. Some of the benefits include:

  • Practical understanding of how the financial markets work.
  • Training in market conduct regulation.
  • Opportunities to work on projects that protect customers and improve financial stability.
  • Being part of a team that provides financial education to South Africans.

This internship is not just about adding experience to your CV – it’s about gaining insight into how finance, law, technology, and customer protection connect to shape the country’s economy.


Who Can Apply?

The FSCA internship is open to South African citizens who meet the requirements listed below:

General Requirements

  • Must have a valid South African ID.
  • Must have no prior work experience.
  • Must submit a detailed CV and certified copies of qualifications.
  • Must have a strong interest in building a career in the financial services sector.

Accepted Qualifications

Applicants should have completed one of the following degrees or diplomas:

  • Events Management / Public Relations
  • Multimedia Design, Graphic Design, or Digital Media
  • Social Sciences
  • Education
  • BCom Economics, Accounting, or Supply Chain Management
  • Logistics (National Diploma)
  • BSc Mathematics, Applied Mathematics, Statistics, Computer Science, or Information Technology
  • Politics, Philosophy, and Economics (PPE)
  • Bachelor of Laws (LLB)
  • Office Administration, Public Administration, or Business Administration
  • Risk Management, Legal, or Corporate Governance Administration

This wide range of qualifications shows that the FSCA is looking for interns from different fields, not just finance.


Duration of the Internship

  • The programme runs for one year only.
  • It is a non-renewable contract, meaning interns cannot extend beyond the 12 months.

This makes it even more important to give your best during the internship, as it may open doors to other opportunities in the future.


Employment Equity Commitment

FSCA is committed to increasing representation from marginalised groups in line with its Employment Equity Plan. Persons with disabilities are especially encouraged to apply and should declare their disability status in their applications.


Important Dates to Note

  • Applications Open: 30 September 2025
  • Closing Date: 10 October 2025
  • Positions Available: 25
  • Job Type: Internship (12 months, contract)

Communication will only be sent to shortlisted candidates. FSCA reserves the right not to make an appointment if a suitable candidate is not found.


Why This Opportunity Stands Out

Graduate jobs are often hard to find, especially for those with no work experience. The FSCA internship removes that barrier by focusing on young people who are just starting their careers. This is a rare chance to learn, grow, and enter the workforce with confidence.

If you have the right qualification, passion, and a desire to build your career in financial services, this internship could be your launchpad.


How to Apply

Interested candidates should prepare their applications with the following:

  • A detailed CV.
  • A certified copy of their South African ID.
  • Certified copies of all relevant qualifications.

Applications should be submitted as instructed on the official FSCA channels before 10 October 2025.


Final Word

The FSCA Internship Programme 2025/26 is one of the best opportunities for young graduates in South Africa right now. With 25 positions available, this is your chance to gain the experience you need to kick-start your career while contributing to the important work of building trust in the financial sector.

Don’t delay – applications close on 10 October 2025.
