INTEGRATION ARCHITECT – UP TO £110,000 – BRISTOL (HYBRID) – 2 DAYS PER WEEK ON-SITE - ACTIVE SC CLEARANCE REQUIRED
We’re looking for two experienced Integration Architects to join a growing architecture team.

Based in Bristol, the role requires 2 days per week on-site, with Wednesday as the team anchor day.
Responsibilities:
- Define and develop enterprise-scale integration architectures.
- Design integration solutions across complex, multi-supplier environments.
- Work across API-led, event-driven, messaging, and service-oriented architectures.
- Develop architecture models, standards, principles, and governance artefacts.
- Work closely with technical and business stakeholders to shape integration strategies.
- Translate complex technical requirements into clear architectural guidance.
- Support architectural governance and ensure solutions align with agreed standards.
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.
