Case Example (Anonymised)
“After 12 years in a senior risk role at a global bank, I was made redundant as part of a merger. I worked with London Outplacement to reposition myself for the fintech space — within 3 months I’d landed a strategic compliance role with a growing digital bank.”
– Former Director, Risk & Regulatory Affairs
