Associate Consultant – Financial Services (Associate Consulting Programme)

Location: London (Hybrid)
Practice Area: Business Consulting
Type: Permanent

Start your consulting career helping financial services organisations transform how they operate and innovate.

The Role

Capco’s Associate Consulting Programme (ACP) is designed for early-career professionals looking to begin a consulting career within Financial Services. As an Associate Consultant, you will join a cohort of new consultants and complete a structured training programme before working on real client projects.

You will be aligned to a core domain: Banking & Payments, Capital Markets, Insurance, or Wealth & Asset Management, gaining exposure to transformation initiatives and AI-enabled ways of working. Working alongside experienced consultants, you will help clients modernise platforms, improve operations, and respond to an evolving industry landscape.

What You’ll Do

  • Support transformation initiatives across Financial Services, conducting research, data analysis, and process mapping to solve client problems
  • Develop key project artefacts including requirements, presentations, and analysis outputs while contributing to business analysis, testing, and operational change
  • Participate in client meetings and workshops, collaborating with stakeholders and using tools, accelerators, and AI to deliver data-driven outcomes

What We’re Looking For

  • University graduate with a minimum of a 2.1 grade (or equivalent) at undergraduate level, possessing strong communication, presentation, analytical, and problem-solving skills & able to structure complex information clearly
  • Interest in Consulting and Financial Services, with curiosity & knowledge of trends across one or more of our domains
  • Experience using AI tools and a strong interest in how AI is shaping the future of work
  • Proactive, curious, and collaborative mindset with strong attention to detail

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.
