About the Risk Apprenticeship Programme

Qualifications: Level 3 Compliance & Risk apprenticeship with Kaplan. You’ll also get the chance to complete either the ICA International Advanced Certificate in Governance, Risk & Compliance or the International Advanced Certificate in Anti-Money Laundering. 

Duration: 2 years

Salary: £31,700 (London) or £26,500 (Bristol and Edinburgh) + fantastic benefits

As a Risk Apprentice, you’ll learn how to spot problems before they happen, help teams stay on the right side of complex regulations, and keep Lloyds Banking Group (and their customers) protected. Think of it as being the safety net for Britain’s biggest digital bank. 

This two-year apprenticeship combines classroom learning with hands-on experience. You’ll rotate through projects that show you just how wide-ranging risk management can be - from fraud prevention to regulatory compliance. 

You’ll cover topics like: 

  • Understanding legal and regulatory frameworks (yes, the rules of the game)
  • Presenting complex information clearly (because jargon doesn’t help anyone)
  • Reporting and analysing risk situations
  • How to build evidence-based reports leaders can act on 

And you won’t just learn theory. You’ll apply it in real life, every day. 

The work you could be doing

  • Helping colleagues apply legal and regulatory frameworks
  • Spotting and reducing potential risks before they grow
  • Writing clear reports that help decision-makers take action
  • Communicating risks in ways that everyone can understand 

You’ll master: 

  • Risk and compliance basics (the “must-haves” in financial services)
  • Analytical thinking and evidence-based reporting
  • Communication skills that make complex stuff simple
  • How to keep customers, colleagues and the business safe
