Are you excited by AI and curious about how technology can transform the way businesses work?

We’re looking for an AI Developer & Automation Apprentice to join our AI implementation programme and help shape the future of AI across the firm.

This is a unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience in AI development, automation, business analysis, process improvement and change management while working on real projects that deliver meaningful business impact.

You'll work alongside experienced developers, technical specialists and business stakeholders to identify opportunities where AI and automation can improve the way we work. You’ll then help design, build, test and implement solutions, as well as supporting colleagues to adopt and get the most from new technology.

Rawlinson & Hunter

Rawlinson & Hunter is a leading international firm of Chartered Accountants, providing specialist accounting, taxation and advisory services to high-net-worth individuals, families and businesses. Technology has been an important part of the firm's development for more than 20 years, and we have an established in-house IT team comprising developers, cloud specialists, support professionals and trainers.

What you’ll be doing:

You'll be involved throughout the lifecycle of AI and automation projects, working with both technical and non-technical stakeholders across the firm.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Supporting requirements gathering, process mapping and identifying opportunities for AI and automation.
  • Assisting with the design and development of AI applications, agents, workflows and automation solutions.
  • Building and refining solutions using AI development tools, coding assistants and automation platforms.
  • Testing AI solutions to ensure they are accurate, reliable, secure and fit for purpose.
  • Supporting the deployment, documentation and rollout of new AI-powered solutions.
  • Creating user guides and training materials and supporting colleagues with the adoption of new technology.
  • Gathering user feedback and helping identify opportunities for improvement.

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.
