Are you a strategic change leader who thrives on delivering major transformation?

Do you enjoy guiding teams through complex change and making sure new ways of working truly stick?

We are looking for a Business Change Consulting Manager. In this role, you’ll join our team within Aerospace, Defence and Security, where we focus on delivering high-impact digital transformation for our clients. You’ll shape and lead business change strategies across large-scale ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning), MES (Manufacturing Execution System) and PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) programmes, helping our clients achieve real operational results. You’ll also play a key part in developing the capability of the team, mentoring others, sharing expertise and supporting a collaborative, people-centred culture.

What we can offer:

  • Great career progression opportunities
  • Ability to be based anywhere across the UK
  • Flexible benefits to meet your needs
  • Training and development opportunities

What you’ll be doing:

  • Leading end-to-end business change strategies for transformation programmes, from initial design through to adoption and sustainability.
  • Driving stakeholder engagement and influence at all levels, from shop-floor teams to executive steering groups.
  • Overseeing ERP, MES and PLM programme delivery, including SAP S/4HANA, alignment and work instruction integration.
  • Mentoring and developing colleagues, helping to grow the change capability within the team.
  • Designing and facilitating workshops to shape requirements, align expectations and support decision-making.

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.
