- You enjoy working with stakeholders to understand their needs and can turn business questions into clear, actionable insights.
- You care about data quality, consistency, and security, and you’re always looking for ways to improve how data is used.
- You have excellent knowledge, experience and understanding of Microsoft Dynamics 365, digital channels and technologies, conversion rate optimisation (CRO) practice, and looking at and quantifying the value and simplicities of supporter journeys across our portfolio for products.
- Your proven experience of using SEO tools and techniques will help to deliver improvements in performance, increase rates of optimisation, conversion and engagement, including A/B and multivariate testing.

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.
