Contract Engineering Manager (/.Net/PHP)

Role Type: Contract | Duration: Initially 6 months | Work Arrangement: Fully remote | Start Date: Immediate

We help organisations navigate the future of technology by combining human expertise, emerging tech, and AI to deliver better outcomes, faster. Since 2014, we’ve partnered with clients to solve complex challenges, build high-performing teams, and create lasting technical capabilities.

About the Role

You will lead and coordinate four small engineering teams focused on .NET and PHP, overseeing their daily operations, direction, coaching, and performance to ensure high-quality, timely delivery.

You’ll drive technical excellence, remove delivery barriers, and foster improved ways of working—demonstrating strong AI-augmented development expertise, including leveraging tools like Claude Code and Devin.

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.
