Are you passionate about designing robust data solutions that make a real business impact?

Do you enjoy bringing structure to complex data landscapes and shaping enterprise-wide architecture?

Looking for a contract where your expertise will influence long-term data strategy as well as hands-on delivery?

If so, we'd love to hear from you.

Join a Business Investing in Its Data Future

Our client is looking for an experienced Data Solutions Architect to play a pivotal role in transforming and modernising its enterprise data landscape. Working across business and technology teams, you'll help define how critical data flows through multiple platforms, ensuring consistency, quality, and scalability while supporting ongoing digital transformation.

This is an excellent opportunity for an architect who enjoys balancing strategic thinking with practical delivery. You'll have the autonomy to influence architecture decisions while working closely with delivery teams to ensure designs become reality.

Why This Role is Great

In this position, you'll have the opportunity to:

  • Take ownership of enterprise-wide data models and relationship mapping across multiple business systems.
  • Shape high-level architecture that supports modern reporting and analytics capabilities.
  • Design scalable data management and data assurance solutions that improve quality and governance.
  • Translate complex business challenges into clear technical architecture and solution designs.
  • Review and guide detailed technical designs, ensuring consistency from concept through to implementation.
  • Evaluate technology options and recommend solutions that balance business value with technical excellence.
  • Work alongside delivery, engineering, and business stakeholders to influence key technology decisions.
  • Contribute to future roadmaps and help shape long-term data strategy.

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.
