Database Administrator

Location: Hybrid London

6 Month Initial Contract Inside IR35

The role

A Microsoft-centric business is scaling up its DBA function to support a major migration. The team is currently stretched thin relative to workload, so they're hiring DBAs to bring in dedicated SQL Server expertise and Azure cloud infrastructure skills to accelerate the move.

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.
