Change Analyst
Salary: £40,000 - £45,000
Location: West Midlands
Working Pattern: Hybrid
We're partnering with a large, well established organisation in the West Midlands that is continuing to invest in improving the way services are designed and delivered for customers and colleagues.
They are now looking to appoint a Change Analyst to play a key role in driving continuous improvement activity across the organisation. This is a hands on, collaborative role where you'll work across multiple service areas to identify opportunities, challenge current ways of working and support meaningful, sustainable change.
You'll act as a trusted partner to operational teams, helping them adopt improvement approaches and build a stronger culture of continuous learning and development.
The Role
In this role you will:
- Work closely with service teams to understand how processes currently operate and where improvements can be made.
- Facilitate workshops, service reviews and process mapping sessions to explore challenges and identify better ways of working.
- Use structured techniques such as root cause analysis to diagnose issues and develop practical, customer focused solutions.
- Provide an independent and objective perspective, constructively challenging assumptions and encouraging continuous improvement.
- Support teams in applying improvement methods and embedding a "make it better" mindset in day to day work.
- Analyse how services connect across the organisation to ensure improvements are joined up and effective.
- Collaborate with wider change and transformation colleagues to align improvement work with broader programmes and priorities.
- Produce clear insights, summaries and recommendations to support decision making and delivery.
- Coach and support colleagues in understanding and applying improvement tools and techniques.
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.
