Reasons to use Rodeo
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
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
The business is also exploring re-entering the wealth market (early stages). Wealth management operational risk experience would be advantageous, but is not essential.
What they’re looking for
- Strong retail/transactional banking knowledge is important (feedback from the business is that this has been lacking previously)
- Second line operational risk experience is preferred; candidates from first line non-financial risk/controls roles may be considered if they can demonstrate relevant risk capability
- Ability to work “hands on” with the business (this team gets involved in BAU risk management with the first line, e.g. supporting risk/control assessments and action tracking)
- Some experience of ICAAP is ideally required (this team facilitates the ICAAP process and also completes capital calculations internally)
- Core data analytics skills (particularly needed during the ICAAP period)
