Our client, a highly respected UK wealth management organisation, is looking for a talented Application Engineer with strong Java and/or Python development experience to join its technology team.
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys delivering scalable business-critical applications, working closely with stakeholders and leveraging technology to enhance adviser and client experiences within a wealth management environment.

Working in an Agile environment, you'll collaborate with analysts, engineers and product teams to deliver robust solutions that drive business value.
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.
