Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
They need someone who can come in and operate independently from day one, with strong UK payments and banking experience.
The key requirements are:
- 8+ PQE, either from private practice or in-house
- Strong UK payments and banking experience
- Specific experience advising on Consumer Duty
- Specific experience across Operational Resilience
- Comfortable working independently in a fast-paced environment
- Thorough, proactive and able to get up to speed quickly
