Mr Webb will spend time working on the pensions helpdesk to learn about issues affecting the public relating to their pensions. He will also accompany the firm on visits to local employers to see presentations to workers about pensions.
The aim of the venture is to understand what apprentices do and highlight the variety of roles available to apprentices.
Mr Webb said: "I'm most grateful to Hargreaves Lansdown for giving me the opportunity to be on the receiving end of a day of workplace-based training. The majority of firms who take on apprentices are so pleased with them that they give them a permanent job at the end of the apprenticeship, which is good news for business and for the apprentices themselves."

Ian Gorham, chief executive of Hargreaves Lansdown said: "It is typical of Steve's commitment to his role as Pensions Minister that he has taken this opportunity to further his experience at the coal-face of the pensions industry. Hargreaves Lansdown is renowned for the quality of our exceptional customer service, this is because we employ enthusiastic and ambitious young people and give them great training. It is no coincidence that three members of our current board of directors started their careers working on our helpdesk. Steve is probably the most over-qualified apprentice we've ever had though."
