AI Business Transformation Leader
UK or North America | Software & Technology
We’re partnering with a highly successful global software group to build a team focused on transforming how its businesses operate in an AI-enabled world.
AI is creating opportunities that go far beyond productivity improvements. It is changing how products are built, how teams are structured, how customers are served and, in some cases, the economics of entire software businesses.
The role
You’ll work directly with leadership teams across a global portfolio of specialist software businesses, helping them understand what AI means for their organisation and then leading them through the change required to realise it.
Every business will start from a different place. Some will already be experimenting heavily with AI. Others may believe they’re further ahead than they actually are. Some will need to fundamentally rethink their teams, products or operating models.
Your role will be to quickly understand the environment, identify what needs to change and help the leadership team make it happen.
That could involve:
- Redesigning teams and operating models around AI
- Transforming how products are developed and delivered
- Identifying new AI-enabled products or revenue opportunities
- Driving significant productivity and operational improvements
- Building high-performing, multidisciplinary teams
- Identifying capability and talent gaps
- Challenging established behaviours and ways of working
- Helping leadership teams navigate the people and cultural implications of significant change
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.

Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Why you're a good match
You’ve got the grades and the economics background, and your bank internship is exactly the experience this scheme looks for. Apply soon — deadlines close within the month.
Experience fit
Your summer at the bank plus your econometrics coursework map directly to the day-one responsibilities on this scheme — client modelling, market briefings, and deal support.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You’ll have strong AI, engineering and product capability around you, including specialists who can rapidly prototype and demonstrate what is possible.
Your challenge is turning that possibility into sustainable organisational change and measurable business impact.
Who are we looking for?
You could have led business transformation, built or scaled technology companies, led product organisations, or operated across several of these areas.
What matters is that you've been close to real transformation rather than simply managing a change programme.
We’re particularly interested in people who can demonstrate:
- Leading significant transformation in complex environments
- Turning technology into measurable business outcomes
- Strong understanding and curiosity around AI
- Operating across technology, product, commercial and people challenges
- Influencing senior leaders without relying on hierarchy
- Navigating resistance and difficult organisational dynamics
- Having challenging conversations while maintaining trust
- Creating ownership for change within leadership teams rather than creating dependency on yourself
We’re not looking for someone to arrive with a predefined methodology, run a programme office or measure transformation through workshops and adoption metrics. This role is much closer to being a transformation operator.


Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Someone who can walk into an unfamiliar business, understand what's really happening, establish credibility quickly and help its leadership team confront what needs to change. Sometimes that will require coaching and influencing. Sometimes it will require challenging strongly held assumptions. And sometimes it will mean demonstrating that what was considered high performance two years ago simply isn't high performance anymore.
Why join?
You'll have the opportunity to work across a large international portfolio of established software businesses, each presenting a different transformation challenge. Working alongside highly capable AI, technology and product specialists, you'll have significant freedom to experiment with emerging technologies and new ways of operating.
Success won't be measured by transformation plans or AI tools deployed, but by what actually changes — whether that's creating new operating models, building higher-performing teams, launching new products and revenue streams, improving customer outcomes, delivering significant productivity gains, or developing leadership teams capable of continuing the transformation themselves.
If you're excited by the people, organisational and commercial challenge of transforming established software businesses through AI, we'd love to hear from you.
