Oracle Application Developers - Why You Should Apply
Tired of just being given a spec and told to build it, without any input into what you're creating or the reasons behind it?
Take ownership from start to finish: You'll be involved from the very first chat with a business user through to go-live. There's no middleman handing you a spec to churn out. You'll discover what's needed, design it, build it, and then experience first-hand how your work makes a difference.
Access to a wide range of EBS modules
Including, Inventory, Purchasing, WIP, WMS, Order Management/Shipping Execution, BOM, Engineering, ASCP, MRP, GL, FA, AP, AR, Costing and EDI Gateway. You don’t need to know them all!
Work with the latest tech
Many existing APEX applications to support and more to develop. You'll be leading the upgrade to APEX 26.1 to utilise the latest capabilities to improve business processes and modernise our development lifecycle.
See your work make a real impact
When manufacturing runs into an issue, you'll see it first-hand and fix the real problem. Your solutions will make your colleagues' lives noticeably easier.
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.
