Head of IT (Contract) – Contemporary Fashion Brand

📍 London | Office-based 4 days per week | Retail infrastructure & security

We’re working with a contemporary fashion brand in London that’s looking for an experienced Head of IT (Contract) to lead a series of high-impact infrastructure and security projects.

This is a hands-on leadership role where you’ll have real influence over how the technology estate evolves as the brand grows. You’ll be the person bringing structure, resilience and modern best practice into a fast-moving retail business.

What you’ll be doing

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.
