Shape the lending decisions that drive growth.

At Cynergy Bank, we're looking for an experienced Senior Credit Sanctioner to join our Credit Risk team.

This is a high-profile role where you'll assess and approve complex lending transactions across property investment, development finance, bridging, structured finance, healthcare, and hospitality. You'll work closely with senior stakeholders across the Bank, influence significant credit decisions, and play a key role in protecting and growing our lending portfolio.

Why This Role?

This is an opportunity to move beyond pure transaction underwriting and become a trusted credit partner to the business. You'll support the structuring of complex deals, contribute to senior credit committees, influence portfolio strategy, and help shape the future of our credit framework.

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.
