Front Office FX Trading Technology - Global Banking & Markets

A leading global investment bank is seeking a Python Developer to join its Front Office FX Options Technology team. This is a high-impact role where you’ll work closely with traders and developers to build cutting-edge, high-performance trading systems - leveraging big data and algorithmic models to analyse and predict market behaviour in real time.

They’re looking for switched-on engineers who can tackle complex problems and deliver business-critical, high-visibility projects in a fast-paced, front-office environment.

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.
