How You'll Help Us Live Our Purpose

We've been helping our members save for their future and buy a home of their own since 1875. By joining us, you'll play a big role in helping us to put home ownership within reach of more people, generation after generation.

It's a purpose that drives everything we do and one we're proud of. And you can play your part by leading the development of Customer Assurance practices across our Customer division, helping us minimise risk, strengthen customer trust and deliver good outcomes across every customer journey.

How You'll Make a Difference

Reporting into the Head of Customer Risk and Assurance, this lead role is responsible for the design, execution and oversight of our Customer Assurance framework and provides assurance on outcomes at an end-to-end customer journey level, Quality Assurance framework to assess colleague competency, and Quality Assurance governance frameworks ensuring compliance with Consumer Duty, conduct and wider regulatory requirements. You'll lead a team of specialists and provide guidance and strategic direction to the business' 2nd and 3rd line to embed the outcomes testing ensuring strong alignment in assessments and understanding.

What will you bring to the role?

  • Strategic thinker that can develop and lead on the assessment of FCA regulated activities (e.g. Mortgage Advice, Underwriting, Savings and Insurance) across people, process, systems and communications.
  • Detailed understanding of FCA Code of Conduct rules, principles for Business, Senior Management Arrangement, Systems and controls, Consumer Duty regulation and Vulnerable Customer guidance.
  • Experience of leading and delivering outcomes assessment across the end to end customer journey cycle and quality assurance and colleague competency assessment models.
  • Ability to drive, promote and maintain a strong ‘customer outcomes focused' culture across Customer division.
  • Strong, visible people leader with an ability to inspire, coach and drive positive engagement and high-performance fostering inclusivity, diversity of thought, experience and culture.
  • Trusted and credible leader with an ability to communicate and influence at all levels including senior leadership teams.
  • Strong analytical skills combined with the ability to communicate and present complex information to a range of audiences.

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.
