Business Consultant
You are a technically literate business consultant who can move seamlessly between strategy definition and hands-on business analysis. You’ll work with defence, law enforcement, national security, and central government clients, shaping technology-enabled change across data, cyber security, and telecoms/networks. You’ll translate complex technical issues into clear, defensible recommendations, build and maintain trusted stakeholder relationships, and drive delivery to time, cost, and quality. You’ll also help grow our consulting capability: developing propositions, winning work, and coaching juniors.
Key Responsibilities
- Engage senior and practitioner level stakeholders, running interviews and workshops.
- Define strategies, target operating models, and business cases for technical programmes.
- Perform structured business analysis: requirements, process mapping, options appraisal, benefits/business cases.
- Design and implement pragmatic improvement roadmaps, tracking delivery and realisation.
- Produce high-quality deliverables (reports, proposals, slideware) to agreed timelines.
- Lead or contribute to bids, frameworks, and proposition development.
- Manage and support small multi-disciplinary teams (client and internal), providing direction and assurance.
- Support graduate/analyst consultants through coaching and mentorship.
- Maintain and extend client relationships. Identify and support new opportunities.
- Uphold and promote our values of being transparent, fair, and daring, both internally and externally.
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.
