What is the role?

This is a two-year graduate programme where you will start your career as a Risk & Compliance Graduate Analyst. You will rotate across different teams gaining broad experience across business areas such as Enterprise risk, Compliance and Internal Controls.

  • Participate in thematic reviews, regulatory data analysis, and the development of risk and compliance insights.​
  • Contribute to the rollout and adoption of systems and tools that support risk and control processes.​
  • Utilise your data analysis skills to review data and present actionable insights.

What are we looking for?

No experience is required; we’ll teach you everything you need to know!

  • Recent graduates or final years studying towards any degree background. A 2:1 grade (or equivalent) is preferred but not essential. We look for potential and willingness to learn.
  • Strong data analysis skills and meticulous attention to detail.

  • Good written and verbal communication skills and comfortable presenting to individuals at all levels.
  • Able to communicate complex topics to non-technical audiences that aids decision making.

Our application process is designed to help you show your potential, not to test what you already know!

  • Online application form – no CV required: We believe you’re more than just a document, so we won’t ask you to submit a CV. Please upload a blank document on the application form.
  • Online gamified assessment: These games will help us understand your natural strengths and how you approach different situations. There are no right or wrong answers. You can complete this stage on your phone or laptop, whichever suits you best!
  • Pre-recorded video interview: You will record your answers to a few questions using your phone or laptop, giving you the chance to tell us more about yourself in your own time in a relaxed setting.
  • Assessment centre: Our final stage is an in-person assessment day at our London office. You’ll take part in some fun group activities and meet our team in a relaxed setting. This day is all about getting to know you better and for you to see what it’s like to be part of Howden and experience our culture. We’ll cover all your travel costs for this day!

At Howden, we are committed to developing and maintaining a culture of equality and diversity in the workplace and welcome applications from all backgrounds.
