Join us as a Lead Product Owner

Set the vision, strategy, and integrated roadmap for economic crime analytics products and platforms aligned to customer outcomes, regulatory commitments, and strategic priorities

You’ll be part of an environment that is passionate about your growth, fosters inclusion, and champions your potential for shared success

What you'll do

As the Lead Product Owner, you’ll set the product direction for our Economic Crime analytics capabilities. You’ll bring customer, colleague, and business needs to form a clear vision and prioritised roadmap for the bank. Moreover, you’ll lead a team of Product Owners and Business Analysts, creating the focus, decision-making, and ways-of-working needed to turn complex problems into measurable outcomes.

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.
