The role
Following a move onto a new lending platform, they’re looking for a Business Analyst with genuine asset finance knowledge to help get the most out of the system and the processes around it.

- Analysing contract, asset and customer data, identifying root causes of errors and working out whether issues are system, data or process related
- Mapping end-to-end asset finance and leasing processes (set-up, amendments, reschedules, settlements, terminations, disposals) and recommending improvements
- Supporting solution design, data mapping, test scripts, UAT and post-release checks
- Building exception reporting and data-quality MI so the operations team can spot problems early
- Producing clear progress updates and presenting findings to senior stakeholders in plain English
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.
