Lead Business Analyst
📍 London or Manchester (Hybrid – 1-2 days per week in office)
We’re recruiting for an experienced Lead Business Analyst to join a large not-for-profit housing organisation during a significant period of transformation and change.
This is an excellent opportunity for a senior BA leader who enjoys operating across strategy, analysis, and delivery while helping shape and mature a high-performing Business Analysis practice.
The Role
You’ll lead a team of Business Analysts while partnering closely with architecture, service design, programme delivery, and wider transformation teams to drive complex business and technology change initiatives. The role covers the full lifecycle – from discovery and root cause analysis through to solution design, delivery support, testing, and benefits realisation.
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.
