💥 Help us to transform the way the industry is approaching financial crime prevention – and play a part in building a growing business at the same time! 💥
At Malverde, we help financial institutions to be better at preventing and detecting financial crime by getting into the detail of financial crime typologies and taking a hands-on approach to implementing technology.
🚀 We’re growing fast and looking for Financial Crime Technology Senior Consultants who already know the landscape — and want more ownership, variety, and impact than a big consultancy can offer. 🚀
This role is ideal if you’re experienced in financial crime change, comfortable in client conversations, and excited by the idea of shaping both solutions and a growing business.
🔍 What you’ll be doing
You’ll work hands-on with FinTechs, challenger banks, payments firms, and broader financial institutions to design, implement, and improve financial crime and fraud technology. That means:
- 🤝 Optimising transaction monitoring, screening, and fraud detection solutions
- 🧠 Reviewing client processes and technology, identifying gaps, and turning insight into action
- 🗣️ Partnering closely with client stakeholders to understand their goals and collaboratively deliver successful outcomes
- 🛠️ Working alongside Malverde subject-matter experts to select and implement the right tools and approaches
- ✍️ Contributing to proposals, client pitches, and proposition development as we grow
- 🌱 Playing a genuine role in shaping the future of Malverde — not just delivering projects, but helping build a business
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.
