What To Expect
As an Associate Project Manager, you will join our Transformation team and play a key role in delivering business change across the Post Office. This is an exciting opportunity for an early-career Project Manager with experience in retail operations, retail transformation, or a fast-paced operational environment who is looking to further develop their project management career.
You will support the planning, coordination, and delivery of transformation projects and workstreams, working closely with Project Managers, Programme Managers, and a wide range of stakeholders across the business. You'll help ensure projects are delivered on time, within scope, and aligned to our strategic objectives, while driving excellent stakeholder engagement and project governance.
This role offers the opportunity to gain exposure to large-scale business change initiatives while also taking ownership of smaller projects and workstreams, allowing you to build your project management expertise in a supportive and collaborative environment.
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.
