What You'll Do
The Global ECT Strategic Projects Senior Manager is a senior role supporting the day-to-day running of the Global ECT function and contributing to its ongoing evolution. The role requires someone equally comfortable operating the business as it stands today and helping reshape it for tomorrow: supporting governance, reporting, and operational rigour across the global-regional model, while contributing to the strategic projects that keep the career track's value proposition current and competitive.
Key Responsibilities
Running the Business
- Managing the operating rhythm of the Global ECT team: governance cadence, PA and regional accountability processes, and leadership reporting
- Supporting core operational programmes including the Expertise Development Program (EDP), the annual PEOPLE survey, and ECT guardrails implementation (including staffing, PA sponsorship, recruiting and billability management best practices)
- Partnering with Regional ECT (Senior) Directors (AP, EMESA, NAMR) to maintain regional consistency, resolve pain points, and keep the global-regional model running smoothly day to day
- Acting as a go-to point of contact on ECT matters for experts and leaders of functional and cross-functional teams
- Maintaining a high bar on data quality, process discipline, and follow-through across the function
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.
