Information Security Architect - CISSP - Banking
An exciting opportunity opens for an Information Security Architect to join an international Bank as they embark on their journey of a major multi-year digital transformation. This is not a traditional role, you will embed within a workstream and be actively involved in the delivery process, ensuring the tech team delivers change securely.
Key responsibilities:
- You will lead risk and control assessments using the Bank’s defined processes, covering supplier due diligence, privacy impact assessments, and project security.
- Support your workstream by identifying and articulating risks, and ensuring these are actions within agreed timeframes.
- You will provide specialist advice and interpretation of Information Security best practice and UK regulatory requirements to a range of different stakeholders as new products, processes, and systems are developed.
- Ability to develop an in-depth knowledge of the Bank’s secure change processes and procedures, shepherding your workstream through various assessments and approval processes.
- Build strong relationships with stakeholders within your delivery team such as developers, testers, product managers, delivery leads, and tech leads. You will be an active member of the delivery team, attending daily stand-ups, PI planning sessions, and working groups.
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.
