Project Manager - UK and EU Licensing Applications
Our client, an international crypto institution, is looking for a Project Manager to drive forward their UK and EU licensing applications. This role is key to their UK and EU expansion plans and will lead the coordination of its regulatory interactions, applications, and filings, working closely with the PRA and FCA and EU equivalents.
What you will be doing:
- Act as the day-to-day coordination point for the firm's interactions with the PRA and FCA in the UK and with national competent authorities across the EU.
- Project-manage licence applications end to end, including MiCA authorisation and UK cryptoasset authorisation, building the plans and trackers that keep every workstream on schedule.
- Coordinate the preparation of application packs across legal, compliance, finance, technology, and governance: business plans, governance documentation, prudential evidence, safeguarding arrangements, and AML frameworks.
- Own recurring regulatory filings, notifications, and reporting across UK and EU regimes, keeping deadlines met and records audit-ready.
- Work across the regulations shaping capital markets and crypto, including MiFID II and MiCA, keeping the business current as supervisory expectations evolve.
- Provide clear status reporting to senior stakeholders, flagging risks and dependencies early.
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.
