Business Consultant – Incident Management Command & Control

Location: London or Birmingham (Hybrid)
Contract: 6-Month Contract
Rate: Up to £950 per day (Umbrella)

An opportunity has arisen with a global Tier 1 financial services organisation to lead the design and implementation of a Command & Control Centre (C3) for Incident Management. Operating within a highly regulated, complex enterprise environment, this role will focus on enhancing operational resilience, improving service stability, and supporting regulatory compliance across large-scale business and technology functions.

Working closely with senior stakeholders across technology and business functions, you will establish and embed best-practice Major Incident Management capabilities.

Key Responsibilities

  • Define the Command & Control Centre strategy, scope, and operating model, including roles, RACI matrices, escalation pathways, and success metrics (e.g. MTTR, engagement time).
  • Design and optimise end-to-end Major Incident Management (MIM) processes from incident detection through to resolution and closure.
  • Establish incident severity frameworks, invocation criteria, and governance structures.
  • Facilitate incident war rooms and coordinate cross-functional teams across Technology, Operations, Cyber Security, Risk, and Business Continuity.
  • Develop communication playbooks for internal stakeholders, executive leadership teams, and customer-facing communications.
  • Translate business requirements into tooling requirements and support the selection and optimisation of incident management platforms (e.g. ServiceNow, PagerDuty or similar).
  • Define management information (MI) reporting and dashboard requirements.
  • Lead training programmes, simulation exercises, and continuous improvement initiatives.
  • Produce key deliverables including operating models, governance frameworks, playbooks, and implementation roadmaps.

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.
