HR Business Partner / Senior HRBP – SM&CR Focus | Wealth Management

Location: London

We're recruiting for a strategic, regulatory-aligned HRBP / Senior HRBP to join a well-established wealth management firm, with a strong emphasis on SM&CR ownership. Reporting to the Group Head of HR, you'll sit at the centre of HR's regulatory operating rhythm.

SM&CR — This is where you'll spend real time:

  • Joint (dual) ownership of the SM&CR framework with Compliance
  • Oversee Certification, Fit & Proper assessments, and Conduct Rules training
  • Own SMF/CR documentation end-to-end
  • Produce SM&CR MI for ExCo, Risk Committee, and Board
  • Embed SM&CR processes across the full employee lifecycle
  • Work closely with T&C to keep competence frameworks, CPD, and supervision MI aligned to SM&CR and MiFIDPRU

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.

  • Proven senior-level ER casework and stakeholder management
  • Comfortable producing SM&CR/conduct/people-risk MI for governance committees
