Having the World at your Fingertips

Guernsey’s modern banking sector can offer some fascinating careers and, at Deutsche Bank, these can stretch right across our different business areas including trusts, investments, private banking and wealth management. It’s exciting, fast paced and interesting - and that’s just in our Guernsey office!

Working as part of Deutsche Bank’s internationally dynamic business can open up incredibly exciting opportunities to travel and experience working in foreign countries. Setting out in a career with Deutsche Bank in Guernsey can lead to work in any one of the 75 countries in which we operate and staff across our Channel Islands offices have spent time in places like Luxembourg, Mauritius, Switzerland and Singapore.

Mark Bisson: Taking up the Mauritius Challenge

Mark Bisson has certainly embraced the challenges and opportunities that Deutsche Bank has offered him. Having completed his education in the UK, Mark moved into the world of retail banking before joining Deutsche Bank in Guernsey in 1993.
