About the Role

This is an exciting opportunity to join our Fraud Analytics team as a Senior Consultant Risk & Controls Partner, where you’ll play a pivotal role as a first-line fraud expert. Working at the heart of Fraud Management, you’ll lead in-depth root cause analysis of fraud cases, identify emerging trends, and collaborate with subject matter experts to continuously strengthen our understanding of fraud risks and controls.

You’ll represent Fraud Analytics across key projects, assessing the impact of change initiatives and ensuring fraud risks are clearly identified, understood, and effectively managed. Partnering closely with stakeholders across Fraud and the wider Protect function, you’ll help shape and enhance our fraud prevention strategies, bringing a strong focus on safeguarding customers and the business during a critical integration programme.

Requirements

We’re looking for an experienced Risk & Controls professional with deep expertise in economic crime, covering both fraud and financial crime disciplines. You’ll bring the confidence to influence senior stakeholders in a high-change environment, alongside excellent communication and documentation skills, enabling you to deliver clear impact assessments, provide robust regulatory guidance, and strengthen control frameworks where it matters most.

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.
