The Opportunity

Our client is looking for a Data Analyst who thinks like a researcher: someone who can structure messy problems, build analyses that hold up, and explain them to people who don't speak in code. We care more about how you think than about a specific pedigree, and we especially value people who apply ideas from one field to solve problems in another.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Problem Framing: tackling complex problems with little description or supporting information and shaping them into clear research questions, then finding your own route to a solution.
  • Data Analysis: Working with raw data to identify patterns, build models, and produce analysis that holds up to scrutiny.
  • Cross-Field Application: Bringing methods from one discipline to bear on problems in another, using unexpected tools to solve them.
  • Coding & Tooling: Building and running analysis primarily in Python and SQL.
  • Client Communication: Explaining technical work and findings clearly to non-technical members of clients' teams.
  • Continuous Learning: Picking up new domains and techniques quickly as the work demands, changing from client to client.

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.
