Lead Data Engineer – FS – London/Bristol 1dpw - £90k-£120k

Off the back of huge investment via PE-backing, they are heavily investing in tech, data and AI, and now looking to scale their data function and modernise their capabilities to provide the best insights and solutions possible for their clients.

We’re now looking for an experienced Lead Data Engineer. Someone with a track record of taking ownership of the design and hands on delivery of data platforms, architecture and who can work with stakeholders across the business to drive this forward.

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.

Only hits

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

This is a tech lead role – very hands on with technical leadership rather than pure people management (there will be an option to manage as the function grows, but this is up to you), but also an opportunity to work with the CTO to make strategic decisions.

Strong experience in the full Azure stack and SQL is a must. DBT or similar is nice to have. FS experience isn’t necessarily required as they’re open to someone bringing a fresh perspective into the business, and you’ll have a well-informed team to lean on when it comes to the industry-specifics.

This is a real opportunity to steer the technical direction of a business without much red-tape.
