Job Description
About Bedford
At Bedford, we help customers see what others can’t and deliver value that goes Beyond the Expected. As one of Anaplan’s most recognised and awarded partners, we combine deep platform expertise, rigorous delivery standards, and a culture built on partnership, quality, innovation, customer focus, humility, and curiosity.
We expect every Anaplan professional at Bedford to be more than a modeller - to be a trusted advisor who sees risks early, identifies opportunities others miss, and helps customers unlock real business impact.
If you’re passionate about elevating your craft and delivering outcomes that surpass expectations, you belong here.

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.
