Risk & Conduct SME – PRIVATE CLIENT WEALTH
INTRODUCTION
Investec is progressing a significant growth agenda within its UK Private Client franchise to deliver our ambition to scale a high-touch, advice-led proposition that combines private banking, wealth capabilities, digital access and the wider One Investec ecosystem. As part of this, the business is developing a broader UK Wealth proposition that will require robust, client-centred operational foundations across onboarding, servicing, fulfilment, controls and governance.
This is a 1st Line risk & conduct SME contract role for someone who can provide specialist risk, regulatory and compliance input into the end-to-end design and launch of the new UK Wealth proposition. You will work as part of a small central build squad, partnering with proposition, platform, service, risk, compliance, legal, governance and operational stakeholders to ensure the target client experience is designed in line with regulatory requirements, Consumer Duty expectations, conduct risk principles and 1st Line control ownership from day one.

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.
It searches the market for you

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What You Will Be Doing
- Provide specialist 1st Line risk input into the end-to-end design of the new UK Wealth proposition, ensuring risks, controls and regulatory obligations are considered throughout the client journey.
- Support the definition of 1st Line control ownership, governance touchpoints, evidence requirements, approvals, escalation routes and ongoing monitoring needs.
- Challenge design choices where they create unnecessary regulatory, conduct or client outcome risk, and recommend practical mitigations that preserve the intended client experience.
- Contribute to launch readiness artefacts by ensuring regulatory, compliance, Consumer Duty and 1st Line risk requirements are clearly captured and understood.
- Provide clear input into programme governance on key risks, assumptions, dependencies, open regulatory questions and decisions required.
