About the role
A career in our Crisis and Resilience team will provide the opportunity to help our clients to:
- Implement effective crisis management and operational resilience programmes that prepare them to face disruption and continue delivering critical services
- Respond effectively when incidents and crises strike (cyber and non-cyber)
- Understand what happened after an event and drive sustainable remediation and control improvements
- Strengthen enterprise risk management (ERM) capabilities, improving risk governance, reporting and decision-making
What your days will look like
As a Senior Associate, you’ll work as part of a team of problem solvers with extensive consulting and industry experience, helping our clients solve complex business issues from strategy to execution.
In this role, you can expect to perform a combination of the following client work:
- Support delivery of crisis management, cyber response, business continuity, operational resilience and ERM engagements. Contribute across the incident lifecycle, including planning, response, exercises and post-incident reviews
- Facilitate client workshops, interviews and scenario testing, translating outputs into actionable improvements. Develop and enhance client documentation (e.g. playbooks, plans, reports, governance materials and Board packs)
- Support resilience and risk assessments, including mapping critical services, dependencies, vulnerabilities, and defining KPIs/KRIs and risk appetite. Contribute to the design and implementation of resilience and risk frameworks, including governance, policies and operating models
- Collaborate across teams and provide subject matter input into wider cyber, resilience and risk engagements. Support the use and configuration of resilience and incident management tooling/platforms (e.g. BCM tools, incident tracking, dashboards). Support business development through client engagement, proposal development, relationship building and creation of tools/thought leadership
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.
