Virtual Technology Subject Matter Expert (SME)

We are seeking a highly talented and motivated Virtual Technology Subject Matter Expert (SME) to join our global Endpoint Operations team responsible for managing over 170,000 user virtual machines and over 4,000 servers across five continents and all time zones. This role combines technical expertise with soft skills to ensure the smooth operation, optimization, and development of our virtualization environments.

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.
