Head of Technology

Hybrid (Brighton)
£100,000–£120,000 + Bonus + Benefits

We’re partnering with a growing, technology-led organisation that is looking for an experienced Head of Technology to lead and develop its technology function.

Reporting directly to the CEO, this is a broad senior leadership role with responsibility for a team of up to 25 people across Software Engineering, IT and technology operations.

You’ll take ownership of the technology strategy and roadmap, while also providing leadership across engineering, architecture, cloud, security, service delivery and AI. The role will suit someone who is comfortable operating at both strategic and operational level and who can help scale the technology function as the business continues to grow.

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.
