Join us as a Customer Due Diligence Analyst, In Life

If you have a curious mind and like to work in a fast-paced, innovative environment, this is a fantastic opportunity to join us as a Customer Due Diligence Analyst.

You’ll work diligently and efficiently to protect our customers and the bank from economic crime. This is an opportunity to join a supportive team where we’ll also take a real investment in your career development. This role is available for a period of 6 months.

What you'll do

In this role within the Customer Due Diligence function, you will primarily focus on the Mettle proposition, supporting Boxed banking-as-a-service processes as needed. As a key part of our first line of defence against economic crime, you will ensure regulatory obligations are met, conduct efficient account reviews, and risk assess customers using various sources to confirm they meet our risk appetite.

You’ll be responsible for:

  • Conducting robust in-life CDD and exit reviews, ensuring our customers align with Mettle’s risk appetite and making fair off-boarding decisions.
  • Efficiently managing company dissolutions and liquidation tasks.
  • Communicating clearly and concisely with our customers, always embodying the distinctive Mettle tone of voice.
  • Operating diligently within NatWest Group policies and Mettle’s established processes.
  • Identifying and mitigating financial crime and reputational risks, escalating effectively when needed.
  • Constantly seeking opportunities to enhance our processes for greater effectiveness and efficiency.
  • Responding to requests for information related to PEP (Politically Exposed Persons) & Sanctions name screening.
  • Handling Law Enforcement requests, such as Production Orders, with precision and adherence to policy.

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.
