This is a high-profile opportunity to shape how regulatory risk, compliance and product governance are embedded across the business. You'll play a critical role in ensuring we deliver great customer outcomes, meet evolving regulatory expectations and maintain robust governance throughout the product lifecycle.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Leading MotoNovo's first-line regulatory risk strategy, ensuring effective oversight of compliance and evolving regulatory requirements.
  • Providing expert regulatory advice and challenge across products, business change and strategic initiatives.
  • Owning Product Governance and championing Consumer Duty to deliver fair customer outcomes.
  • Translating regulatory change into practical business actions, overseeing implementation and managing associated risk.
  • Producing regulatory risk insight, reporting and governance updates for senior stakeholders and committees.
  • Building strong relationships across the business and representing MotoNovo in regulatory and industry forums

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.
