Asides from the London IB office—are the IB offices in those aforementioned locations different in their practice? Does the location one interns in make any practical difference for deals & career? Why are there separate openings for all these anyway (unheard of for any other banks)?!

From what I recall smaller offices only have certain teams, so you might be more pigeonholed if applying to say Birmingham.
Could be a good way to slide in but you’d probably struggle to quickly transfer back to London (and the recruitment process might pick up on your scheme).
What precisely do you mean by "scheme"?
Applying to a regional office (as one might imagine it’s less competitive) to then transfer back to London after a year.
What types of teams have you heard about in regional offices? Wondering how pay / work may differ to London offices. Imaginably a regional office might limit exit opps to smaller local PE firms for example (unlike bigger PE or HF in London), but you might be able to save a little more at the start of a career comparatively.
Roths pays same across the UK. Definitely a better WLB in comparison to London - still sweaty ofc
