Complaint Handler

As a Complaint Handler, you will play a critical role in ensuring fair and professional resolution of client complaints within a regulated financial services environment. You will be responsible for managing the end-to-end complaints process, from initial investigation through to final response, while maintaining compliance with FCA, DISP, and other relevant regulatory frameworks.

What you’ll do:

Investigate and Respond to Client Complaints:

  • Manage end-to-end client complaints, acting as the primary point of contact throughout the process
  • Conduct thorough investigations by gathering and analysing evidence, reviewing client interactions, and liaising with internal teams
  • Communicate with clients in a clear, empathetic, and professional manner, keeping them informed of progress
  • Produce high-quality Final Response Letters (FRLs), clearly outlining decisions and any remedial actions
  • Ensure all complaints are handled in line with FCA, DISP, and other regulatory requirements
  • Maintain accurate and comprehensive records for all cases

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.
