Senior Account Manager, Financial Services
| £60,000-£85,000 base, circa £160,000 OTE uncapped with accelerator | City of London
Our client is a fast-growing, PE-backed technology talent and training business, one of the UK's leading names in the space, and they're building out their Financial Services practice with a Senior Account Manager to own and grow relationships across some of the world's biggest investment banks.
The opportunity
Major financial institutions are under real pressure to build technology and change capability without expanding permanent headcount. Our client's model solves that problem directly, and it's landed real accounts because of it: they're already embedded with several major UK banks, and there's a clear mandate to break into the very top tier of global investment banking.
The role
This is a genuine hunter and farmer seat. You'll be growing existing accounts while opening new ones, running the full commercial cycle from first conversation through to close. The proposition has real depth: trained consultants placed on flexible engagements, alongside an upskilling offer for banks who can't add headcount. That gives you two credible entry points into every client conversation, not just one.
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.
