Company Overview

EC Markets is an established leader in global financial trading and brokerage, providing innovative FX and CFD services to a diverse international client base. With continued growth and an expanding operational and regulatory footprint, EC Markets is strengthening its risk management capability to support robust, data-driven oversight and operational integrity.

Role Purpose

The Risk Analyst will support the firm’s day-to-day risk monitoring, analysis, and operational risk control activities. The role focuses on identifying abnormal activities, analysing risk-related data, supporting investigations, and contributing to the continuous improvement of internal risk management processes.

This position is well suited to a detail-oriented individual with strong analytical skills who is keen to develop a career in risk management within a fast-paced, regulated financial services environment.

Key Responsibilities

Risk Monitoring & Analysis

  • Monitor and review daily risk-related data to identify potential risk points, abnormal activities, and irregular patterns.
  • Conduct statistical analysis and trend assessments on monitoring results, producing regular risk analysis reports with actionable insights and recommendations.
  • Maintain a high level of accuracy and consistency in risk data review and reporting.

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.
