Head of IT – Hampshire

£65,000 - £85,000 + Benefits + Hybrid Working

An exciting opportunity for a Head of IT to lead IT strategy and daily operations within a growing organisation. Having expanded through acquisitions in recent years, the company has a busy pipeline of IT projects designed to support future growth.

Located on the south coast, the offices are accessible from Southampton and Portsmouth, offering flexible hybrid working arrangements.

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.
