Risk & Control Manager – Business Banking

We’re offering an exciting opportunity for an experienced Risk & Control Manager to join the Business Banking Business Controls team, an influential function at the heart of managing our risk profile and supporting safe, sustainable growth.

About the Role

You’ll partner closely with Business Banking teams to ensure risks are understood, owned, and effectively managed across the end-to-end customer and product lifecycle, providing exposure to some of the organisation’s most critical activities.

In this role, you’ll play a pivotal part in shaping and continuously enhancing the risk profile across a complex and evolving business landscape. You’ll be accountable for:

  • Leading insight-driven risk and control activity
  • Partnering with senior stakeholders to identify, assess, and mitigate risks
  • Enabling commercially sound, risk-informed decision-making

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.
