Description
Sumer is a values-led, purpose-driven professional services group on an ambitious growth journey. Built through acquisition, Sumer brings together high-quality regional firms under a collaborative and entrepreneurial model. As the Group continues to scale, we are establishing a permanent procurement function to support commercial performance, supplier governance, and operational consistency across the business.
We are seeking an experienced IT Infrastructure Analyst to support a major transformation programme, consolidating multiple accountancy firms into a centralised Microsoft Azure environment.

- Ensure security, compliance, and governance standards are maintained throughout
- Troubleshoot and resolve migration-related issues
- Collaborate with project managers to track progress and manage risks
- Produce clear technical documentation and handover materials
- Provide knowledge transfer to internal teams post-migration
- Execute migrations of:

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.
