About the Company

My client is one of the largest financial institutions headquartered in Japan, with an established presence across all consumer and corporate banking businesses. Through its subsidiaries and affiliates, they offer a diverse range of financial services, including commercial banking, leasing, securities, credit card, consumer finance and other services.

Job Purpose

This Risk & Finance Data Governance Analyst is an important role as part of the EMEA Division’s BCBS239 Programme. The ideal candidate will have knowledge of data management, BCBS239, ECB onboarding and operational risk management practices.

The role will require working with stakeholders across all functions to ensure fit-for-purpose data, as they look to leverage best practice across the industry. As the concepts of Data Governance are new to the organisation, the role also requires an ability to educate and convince stakeholders at all levels on the essential nature of this role.

You must be willing to challenge the status quo in an empathic manner, while helping the wider team to have an ethos of openness and transparency that will help them nurture real business innovation.

Accountabilities & Responsibilities

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.
