“I can succeed as the Global Director of Software and Data Engineering, Enterprise Data Office”

As the Global Director of Software and Data Engineering, Enterprise Data Office (EDO), you will be at the helm of transforming how Capital Group leverages data to launch new products and investment strategies to the market and drive strategic growth. You will inspire and lead high-performing engineering teams to build innovative, scalable, and resilient software and data solutions that empower our global Operating Groups, including Investment Operations, ITG, and Global Finance, and the many stakeholders in the Investment Group and Client Groups they serve. You will lead in areas that are critical to Capital Group’s market success, including product data management, client-facing data, and marketing/publishing data automation.

This role is a unique opportunity to shape the future of both software and data engineering at Capital Group—where creativity meets strategy, and fun is part of the journey.

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.
