We're partnering with a well-established organisation that is investing heavily in its data capability and is looking for a Data Governance Officer to play a key role in driving data governance maturity across the business. This is an opportunity to move beyond policy documents and frameworks, helping stakeholders understand the value of good governance and embedding best practice in a practical, business-focused way.
Data Governance Officer - The Role:
Working within a growing data function, you'll be responsible for supporting and enhancing data governance frameworks, engaging with stakeholders across the organisation, and helping to embed governance standards, policies and processes. You'll work closely with business teams to improve data quality, support governance forums, track improvement initiatives and drive wider adoption of governance practices.
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.
