Head of Engineering

This is a pivotal role to lead the technical delivery of AI, automation, and digital innovation across the firm. Responsibilities include designing, prototyping, building, and deploying solutions such as copilots, document intelligence tools, workflow automation, and knowledge systems. In addition, you will shape the broader technology direction by introducing scalable cloud platforms, data pipelines, and automation frameworks that support business growth.

Our client is an established multidisciplinary professional services firm, specialising in leveraging modern technology to deliver measurable business impact. The firm is investing significantly in AI and automation as a strategic priority and operates in an execution-focused, high-trust environment. Successful candidates will have direct access to Partners and senior leadership across the organisation.

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.
