Nottingham Trent House (95002), United Kingdom, Nottingham, Nottinghamshire

Quality Assurance Process Manager (Associate)

Our Mission

We’re on a mission to be a force for good in lending. Throughout our almost 30-year history, we’ve consistently been recognised as a great place to work; in 2026, Capital One was officially ranked 9th in the UK’s Best Workplaces™ list. Hear from our team about what it’s like working at Capital One UK.

About the role

This is an opportunity to join a vibrant, fast-paced team, providing quality assurance and actionable insights across the business. You will ensure the Quality Assurance process and change initiatives are well managed and help mitigate risk. This is an individual contributor role, but you will support skills development, and drive high performance through effective coaching and mentorship across the team.

What you'll do

  • Monitoring & Validation: Monitor complex, high-risk workstreams requiring strong judgement skills across multiple channels, conduct reperformance testing, and evaluate outcomes to ensure process adherence, accuracy, and regulatory alignment.
  • Process & Change Management: Drive the design, maintenance, and governance of frontline QA methodologies and process frameworks. You will proactively assess the impact of strategic and operational changes, embedding robust controls and collaborating across teams to ensure change is managed safely, smoothly, and effectively.
  • Stakeholder Engagement & Insights: Drive business-wide performance by leading robust calibration sessions, conducting deep-dive root-cause analyses, and delivering high-value insights to operational and cross-functional leaders to continuously elevate quality standards.
  • Coaching & Onboarding: Design and lead comprehensive onboarding frameworks for new QA hires, driving rapid time-to-competency and standardising evaluation standards across the team. Provide structured mentorship, ongoing coaching, and targeted upskilling to cultivate a culture of quality excellence and maximise overall team performance.
  • Governance & Performance: Track departmental deliverables and SLAs, manage QA monitoring platforms, and resolve process breakdowns through structured problem-solving techniques.

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.
