Help us create a better future, quicker
We are currently seeking an experienced Application Consultant to play a key role in shaping and delivering a forward-thinking Digitalisation Strategy within a large, complex organisation. This is an opportunity to operate within a Transformation Value Stream, where you will influence application design decisions that balance both local business needs and global architectural standards.
What you’ll be doing
In this position, you will take ownership of translating strategy into practical, scalable solutions. Working closely with Transformation Architecture and Strategy teams, you will define robust application designs and ensure alignment across programmes. You will also lead and develop a small team of Application Analysts and Administrators, providing clear direction, mentoring, and support to enable successful delivery and ongoing optimisation of solutions.
A central aspect of the role involves engaging with business stakeholders and external partners to capture requirements, evaluate solution options, and recommend the most effective technical approaches. You will assess third-party proposals, validate cost models, and contribute to early-stage project scoping, feasibility analysis, and business case development. Your ability to bridge technical complexity with business priorities will be key to success.
You will play a vital role across the full project lifecycle, from decomposing large initiatives into manageable workstreams to defining testing strategies for complex, integrated systems. Alongside delivery, you will contribute to the continuous evolution of frameworks, templates, and models that support consistent implementation of business requirements across the function.
This role offers significant scope to work with modern technologies, including data analytics platforms, customer-focused digital solutions, and emerging innovations. You will collaborate with global teams and external vendors to identify and implement technologies that align with long-term business objectives while maintaining up-to-date expertise in your specialist areas.
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.
