2025 Leadership Development Program – Technology and Innovation Track (Full Time LDP)

The Leadership Development Program (LDP) is a comprehensive, structured, broad based rotational financial services immersion program focusing on various topics applicable to the industry including a strong foundation in leadership skills, financial services acumen, strategy, innovation and creativity, data analysis, storytelling, project management, risk governance and assurance, and the Truist organization and culture. Your experience will include exposure to Truist senior leaders, sessions with members of Executive Leadership and track specific curriculum with various rotations spread across the Truist footprint.

The program interweaves the three dimensions of development:

Education: Training and learning in large groups, small group/peer interaction, and self-study components.

Exposure: Opportunity to interact with all Executive Leaders throughout the program, as well as exposure to other senior leaders, lines of business, industry specialists, training experts, and other Truist teammates.

Experience: Business rotations to provide an opportunity for meaningful learning experiences with business impact.

The Opportunity:

At Truist, we’re recruiting catalysts for care. Fire-starters with the energy and ideas to take us further, faster as we deliver on our purpose. So, we designed the Leadership Development Program (LDP) with that specific goal in mind.

As a part of this immersive program, you’ll dive headfirst into critical work as you rotate through specific areas of the bank over the course of the year. You’ll also participate in a custom curriculum where you’ll deepen your financial services acumen and have an opportunity to build mission-critical skills in strategy, innovation and creativity, data analysis, project management, and more. Bottom line? We’re talking real work experience combined with custom leadership development and candid conversations with the top leaders at Truist that put you on the fast-track to real impact.

Along the way, you’ll be in good company. Every aspect of our program is designed to help teammates connect, learn from each other, and experience the power of One Team. That way, you’ll leave the program with a built-in network you can call at any time.

Upon graduation, you’ll have an opportunity to secure placement based on business needs, your preference, and performance.
