Responsibilities

Start Your Career in Compliance

Are you interested in financial regulation, risk management, and how global financial institutions maintain high standards of governance and conduct?

We're looking for a motivated and detail-oriented Trainee to join our UK Compliance team. This is an excellent opportunity to gain hands-on experience within a global financial services organisation, supporting the Compliance team responsible for the firm's Global Banking Technology & Operations (GBTO) division.

GBTO is the business area that provides the operational, technology, and regulatory reporting infrastructure that supports banking and markets activities globally. In this role, you'll gain valuable exposure to compliance advisory work, regulatory oversight, governance, and risk management while building a strong understanding of the operational side of financial services.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Supporting compliance monitoring and control activities.
  • Assisting with regulatory developments and industry research.
  • Helping oversee regulatory reporting and governance processes.
  • Preparing reports, dashboards, and management information.
  • Responding to stakeholder queries across Compliance, Operations, Technology, Legal, and Business teams.
  • Contributing to projects linked to regulatory change and process improvement.

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.
