This is a hands-on role where you’ll support the day-to-day running of our IT environment while also contributing to projects that improve how we work. You’ll play an important part in ensuring our systems are reliable, secure, and optimised, while helping us explore opportunities in automation, AI, and modern cloud technologies.

- Provide supportive, high-quality deskside and remote assistance, including for senior stakeholders and leadership teams
- Manage and maintain IT systems, network infrastructure, and Windows/macOS environments across the organisation
- Administer and optimise Microsoft 365 and Entra ID/Azure AD, including user provisioning and licence management
- Troubleshoot and resolve incidents and service requests, ensuring a positive end-user experience
- Support and enhance endpoint security, system performance, and compliance 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.
