The Company
An established international technology organisation developing modern software solutions used by businesses across multiple markets. The company offers an excellent salary package, great benefits and a very good working environment, with a strong emphasis on training and career development. We have worked with this organisation for a number of years and they have built a very solid and supportive engineering team with low staff attrition. It's an excellent environment for someone at the beginning of their software career who wants to learn from experienced engineers and progress within the company.
What They're Looking For
We're looking for a Junior Software Engineer with a good foundation in software development and a genuine interest in building modern applications. This would suit a recent Computer Science/Software Engineering graduate or someone with up to two years' commercial experience, including internships or placements. Strong personal or academic development projects will also be considered.
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.
