Description

J.P. Morgan Markets is more than just crunching numbers. Our teams are committed to building client relationships and making meaningful contributions to our business. We are active in all major financial markets and develop sophisticated financial solutions to help clients manage risk, increase returns and solve complex financial problems. Globally, we hold leadership positions across all major financial markets.

The J.P. Morgan Markets Sales Case Competition ("JPMMSCC") puts you right in the middle of the action. JPMMSCC offers students a fun, interactive and professional learning experience whilst getting a unique first-hand experience of the firm's culture. Through a hypothetical case study, you'll find out what it takes to work as a Sales Analyst in Markets.

Competing as individuals, participants will formulate a short and concise trade idea in both Macro (Fixed Income or Foreign Exchange) and Equities. Subsequently, trade recommendations will be assessed by members of the J.P. Morgan Markets team. The semi-final round will be held via zoom, and the final round will be in person and involve the top-performing individuals presenting to several of J.P. Morgan's key executives with a Q&A session to follow presentations. Finalists will receive feedback prior to the presentation.

The competition is open to:

• Students enrolled in a Bachelor's Degree program in their penultimate year graduating between April 2027 and December 2027 from Universities located in Australia
• As the winner of the competition will be prioritized for final round interviews for an internship requiring the right to work, students must be a New Zealand Citizen, Australian Citizen or Permanent Resident at the time of the registration.

Application Process

Submit your application through this portal - with a CV/Resume uploaded.

When the case study is released on 13 April 2026, you will also be sent a copy of the Terms & Conditions document for the competition. By completing the registration form and/or participating in the Competition, you unconditionally agree to all of these Terms & Conditions.

Winner of the JPMMSCC will be prioritized for final round interviews in our Markets Sales Summer Internships held in our Australia office. (Winner will still need to formally apply for the role and meet the eligibility criteria and minimum requirements of the role to be considered for an internship).

All other finalists will receive a mentoring session from a JPM Markets employee.
