We’re partnered with a leading UK-based consultancy specialising in aligning business strategy with technology delivery, particularly within Financial Services. Due to continued growth, they’re looking for emerging Solution Architects who are already contributing to design work and ready to step into a more defined architecture role.
The Role
You’ll support the design and delivery of enterprise-grade solutions across cloud, hybrid and on-prem environments. Working alongside experienced architects, you’ll help shape modern architectures — connecting legacy systems with emerging technologies, including AI.
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.
