Senior Front Office Business Analyst
I'm currently working with a growing energy trading business that is looking to hire a Senior Front Office Business Analyst to support a significant expansion across trading desks, products, and international markets.
This is not a traditional Business Analyst role. The position sits at the heart of the trading floor, working directly with traders, operations, and technology teams to deliver front-office initiatives that enable the launch of new trading desks, onboard new geographies, and support the continued growth of both traditional and renewable energy trading activities.
The environment is fast-paced and highly commercial, requiring someone who can quickly understand complex trading concepts and translate business requirements into scalable technology solutions. The team is looking for a BA who is comfortable challenging stakeholders, driving requirements from inception through delivery, and operating within a front-office trading environment where decisions are made in real time.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
