Breakthrough technology is critical to protecting the UK’s Defence and Homeland Security. As an Experienced Consultant, you’ll be right at the heart of that mission—helping to defend against emerging technological and cyber threats.
This is a role where your work genuinely matters. You’ll collaborate with elite, multi-disciplinary teams of scientists, engineers, and designers to explore pioneering concepts and turn them into reality. From first principles to fully functioning prototypes, you’ll be hands-on throughout the entire product lifecycle—capturing requirements, designing architectures, developing and testing solutions, and delivering working systems.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
