The Role

We are looking for a highly organised and proactive Investment Manager's Assistant to join our successful and collaborative Investment Management team.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone with strong administrative skills and an interest in financial services to play a key role in supporting experienced Investment Managers who work with discretionary and advisory clients. You'll gain valuable exposure to investment management, client relationship support, portfolio administration, and wealth management operations while working within a professional and client-focused environment.

As a trusted member of the team, you'll help ensure a seamless experience for clients by maintaining accurate records, coordinating account administration, handling client enquiries, and liaising with internal departments to deliver an exceptional service.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Providing day-to-day administrative support to a busy team of Investment Managers.
  • Assisting with the opening, maintenance, and closure of client accounts, including AML and KYC requirements.
  • Maintaining accurate client records and ensuring information remains up to date.
  • Supporting the preparation of client documentation, reports, and suitability reviews.
  • Responding to client queries and liaising with professional intermediaries such as solicitors and accountants.
  • Monitoring the progress of new investments and proactively resolving any issues that arise.
  • Coordinating cash movements and payment administration with internal departments.
  • Ensuring all client files are accurately maintained and compliant with regulatory requirements.
  • Supporting new business activity by helping onboard prospective clients and processing documentation efficiently.
  • Assisting with ad hoc projects and process improvement initiatives to enhance team efficiency.

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.
