You get to build something from nothing, with the backing of one of the largest conglomerates in the world behind you.
This is a fund that has spun out of a major global conglomerate. They have the capital, the ambition, and the mandate to build a world-class commodities hedge fund right here in the UK. Everything is greenfield. No legacy systems, no inherited mess, no technical debt from ten years ago that nobody wants to touch.
You are joining at the start. That means the architecture decisions you make now are the ones that stick. You are working directly with high volumes of real-time market data and building the data infrastructure that a serious trading operation will run on.
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.

What makes this different from most data roles is that you are not being put in a box. There is no ringfenced data team sitting separately from the engineers. You will work across both disciplines, picking up skills on both sides and becoming a genuinely well-rounded engineer rather than a narrow specialist.
The team is lean, which means your work is visible and your impact is real.
