Technical Lead – Asset Servicing / Post-Trade
We’re looking for an experienced Technical Lead to join a large financial services organisation working on a major Asset Servicing modernisation programme.
You’ll provide technical direction across the design and delivery of solutions within Asset Servicing, working closely with engineers, architects and business teams. The environment covers both legacy and modern technology, with a focus on improving integrations across Asset Servicing, settlement and payments.
This could suit an experienced Technical Lead or Lead Engineer with strong securities post-trade knowledge who wants to take on broader solution design and architecture responsibilities.
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.
