Data Architect (Financial Asset Management Transformation) - Hybrid working - 3-6 month contract (inside IR35)

This is a high-impact role focused on moving a financial institution from fragmented, manually reconciled data assets to automated, trusted, and fully traceable data across its lifecycle.

About the Role

I am looking for a Data Architect to play a key role in a major transformation programme, building a scalable, auditable data foundation for financial asset management.

If you enjoy solving complex data problems, influencing enterprise architecture, and driving tangible business outcomes… this is a standout opportunity!


Key Responsibilities

You’ll be responsible for:

  • Defining end-to-end data architecture across the asset lifecycle
  • Designing a canonical asset data model to standardise data across systems
  • Establishing clear systems of record and data ownership frameworks
  • Driving data quality improvements and remediation plans
  • Embedding financial controls and audit-ready data flows by design
  • Shaping event-driven, API-led integration patterns
  • Standing up a practical data governance model
  • Defining core data products for financial and regulatory reporting

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.
