The Role

While you’ll have heard our name, there’s a lot you probably don’t know about NEXT. Like how we create most of our systems ourselves – whether it’s a website, mobile app or application. What’s more, we’re growing. Fast. And it’s the kind of growth and investment that is exciting for everyone in our business.

Our eCommerce websites and apps have grown steadily over the past 10 years to become one of the largest online retail platforms in the UK. We currently sell to 70 international markets, offering our 6 million active customers a personalised shopping experience and the ability to purchase from a wide range of products using multiple delivery methods and payment types.

What You’ll Take On

  • You'll be helping develop our cloud platform and assisting with the transformation of the current monolithic system to one based upon a micro-service Architecture.
  • You'll work on various exciting and high profile projects, to ensure our systems/applications support the portfolio of products we have now and into the future. Making sure as Next expands or adopts new initiatives, our systems evolve and grow to support it every step of the way.
  • Working with us would mean exposure to new technologies and ways of working, getting involved in forcing through change and ultimately providing our customers with a better service.
  • You will help provide the analysis and development skills we need to create and enhance our systems and applications, as well as offering out-of-hours call out on a rota basis.
  • You’ll also use your expertise and experience to help us continually improve our processes, improve our quality and working practices, actively enabling the team to become as efficient and effective as it can be.

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.
