Director of Investment Technology
We're working with an organisation that's investing heavily in its technology function and looking for an experienced technology leader to take ownership of a large portfolio supporting investment and operational platforms.
This is a fantastic opportunity to shape technology strategy, lead multiple engineering teams and play a key role in delivering large-scale transformation programmes while ensuring day-to-day operational excellence.
What you'll be doing
You'll lead several technology squads responsible for delivering platforms that support core business operations. Working closely with senior business and technology stakeholders, you'll help define strategy, prioritise delivery and ensure teams are focused on building scalable, reliable solutions.
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.
