About Lumin Wealth
Founded in 2010 and headquartered in St Albans, Lumin Wealth is a Chartered firm providing financial planning and investment management to more than 4,000 families, with £1.6 billion in client assets under management. After more than a decade of uninterrupted growth, we now have over 120 people across offices in London and the South East. We're part of VZ Group, Switzerland's leading independent financial services provider. We're now on an ambitious journey to 5x growth over the next six years, and technology is central to how we get there.
The opportunity
Our small but mighty data team has built a modern platform on AWS, delivering everything from real-time dashboards to internal web applications. You'll pair with experienced engineers, learn a modern TypeScript stack properly and steadily take on more ownership as your confidence grows. You won't be maintaining legacy systems or fixing tickets in isolation. You'll contribute to greenfield applications that support our growth strategy, with support close at hand whenever you need it.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
