About the Role

We are seeking an experienced Control Room Head to lead and evolve our regional Control Room function within a global investment banking environment. This is a senior leadership opportunity for a compliance professional with deep expertise in market abuse regulation, conflicts of interest, and Control Room operations.

In this highly visible role, you will shape the strategic direction of the EMEA Control Room framework, partnering with senior stakeholders across Banking, Markets, and Compliance to ensure robust governance and regulatory compliance. You will also lead a team while helping develop global standards and best practices.

What you'll be doing

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.
