Most underwriting roles ask you to assess deals. This one asks you to help build the machine behind them.

We're partnering with an award-winning, high-growth fintech lender that is redefining how ambitious UK businesses access capital. As lending volumes continue to scale, they're looking for a commercially minded Credit Analyst or Senior Credit Analyst to join their growing Risk team.

This is not a "sit in your lane and process applications" role. You'll independently assess lending opportunities while helping design and improve the underwriting systems, risk models and decision-making frameworks that power the business.

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.
