About this opportunity
This is a rare opportunity to operate at the heart of one of the Group’s most strategically important leadership teams, helping shape the digital experiences used by millions of customers.
As Executive Assistant to the Chief Digital Officer, you'll be far more than a traditional executive support partner. You'll be a trusted executive operator, creating the conditions for leadership effectiveness, pace, clarity and delivery across a broad agenda spanning customer experience, digital channels, products, data, AI, technology and proposition development.
Working as an integral member of the Chief Digital Office Leadership Team, you'll help turn strategic priorities into action, ensuring decisions are made at pace, commitments are delivered, and leaders remain focused on the outcomes that matter most for customers and the business.
What you’ll do
- Partner with the Director to shape priorities, drive strategic objectives and support executive decision-making.
- Orchestrate the leadership agenda across the Chief Digital Office, ensuring strategic priorities, governance and business collaborators and lead engagement are aligned and executed effectively.
- Develop a deep understanding of the customer, channel and digital landscape, bringing insight and context to key discussions and decisions.
- Build strong relationships across Chief Digital Office, Consumer Relationships and wider Group functions, acting as a connector across teams, priorities and programmes.
- Shape and coordinate the operating rhythm of the CDO Leadership Team, driving focus, engagement, accountability and delivery.
- Lead the development and coordination of executive, committee and governance materials, ensuring high-quality outputs and compelling strategic narratives.
- Provide thoughtful challenge, advice and guidance to business partners, ensuring decisions are informed, aligned and customer-focused.
- Build and maintain a strong network across CDO, Consumer Relationships and the wider Group to enable collaboration and execution of strategic priorities.
- Identify opportunities to improve effectiveness, simplify processes and strengthen the impact of the executive office.
- Partner closely with Executive Assistants, Business Managers and leaders across the Group to support seamless business delivery.
- Lead and coordinate events and leadership initiatives, bringing together multiple collaborators to deliver successful outcomes.
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.
