We are seeking a highly organised and detail-oriented Trade Finance Middle Office Administrator to join our London team on a 6-month contract. You will be responsible for the onboarding and processing of trade finance transactional drawdowns, monitoring customer exposure against approved facilities, and ensuring all transactions remain within agreed credit parameters.

  • Build effective working relationships with Trade Operations, Relationship Managers, and support functions.
  • Identify opportunities to improve processes, reduce operational risk, and enhance productivity.

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.
