Is there a way to get into finance with good degree but bad alevels?

I'm currently a MSc student at a top 5 uni studying essentially studying rocket science (the degree isn't actually called rocket science though haha) and a recent physics graduate from a RG university with a first class degree. However, my alevels were terrible (including a D in maths) since I really struggled during that time.

I've been thinking about getting into finance after graduating (perhaps after doing a phd) but a lot of graduate schemes I've seen ask for a minimum ucas point score (which I don't meet) and usually a minimum of an A in alevel maths.

I'm wondering whether there's any way my alevels will hinder me from getting a graduate position in a top bank even though I turned my academic results around during my degrees? Any advice?
