People are living longer and we’re excited by the opportunities this brings to help people live their best lives. We’re here for everyone who wants to make the most of their time on the planet and leave it a little better than they found it – however grand or humble their ambitions.
We help people live their best lives. We help them with the big stuff, for the moments that matter: Pensions, Savings, Investments. At Aegon, we strive in creating a diverse organisation that plays a meaningful role in driving greater equity, inclusion and belonging.
We're looking for a Senior Conduct Risk Manager to join our Conduct Risk team on a permanent basis. This is an exciting opportunity to support the Head of Conduct Risk in overseeing and managing regulatory and conduct risks across the business, while helping to ensure good customer outcomes remain at the heart of our decision making.
You'll work closely with senior stakeholders across the organisation, providing expert advice, oversight and constructive challenge on regulatory matters. The role will play a key part in supporting strategic and regulatory change, translating FCA and PRA requirements into practical business solutions and ensuring projects deliver compliant and customer-focused outcomes. Alongside this, you'll help support and develop the Conduct Risk team, fostering a collaborative and high-performing culture.
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.
