Portfolio Implementation Analyst
Cambridge
We're recruiting on behalf of a highly respected, privately owned wealth management firm based in Cambridge. This is a fantastic opportunity for an investment professional looking to build a career at the heart of portfolio operations.
The Role
You'll sit within a specialist investment team, taking direct responsibility for the execution and implementation of model portfolios across a range of centralised investment propositions — including MPS, PPS, FOF, MAF and ESG strategies. Working closely with Investment Managers, you'll ensure portfolios are rebalanced efficiently, accurately and in line with each client's objectives.
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.
