Our client, a leading global financial institution, is seeking a senior AI Systems Architect to define how AI becomes a structural capability within their capital markets platform. Reporting directly to the global CTO, this will be a high-profile role working with global business stakeholders and requiring an experienced Architect with extensive Capital Markets product experience and knowledge.

Some of the key responsibilities will include:

  • Owning the AI architectural doctrine, governing how AI is embedded across the full Capital Markets product suite.
  • Establishing the AI governance and model policy — covering model selection, prompt and RAG management and audit trace retention in a regulated environment.
  • Representing the architecture externally, facing off to regulators, external auditors, and clients on AI governance, risk frameworks, and architectural decisions.

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.

  • A proven track record of defining architectural direction independently.
