Join us as a Financial Planning Specialist in Private Banking

You'll be managing the Financial Planning needs of our private banking customers, providing advice for wealth structuring, investments, bonds, and protection. Our clients will look to you as a trusted advisor to develop and deliver their holistic wealth plans. Hone your relationship management skills in an environment where we take a real investment in your development. You will work from home some of the time but be expected to be in the office at least six days a month.

What you'll do

In this key role, you'll be providing high-quality financial advice to private banking clients, both existing and new to the bank. You'll use your communication skills and expert knowledge to deliver outstanding client service, every time. We'll also look to you to build, manage and enhance the client relationship management process.

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.
