Lead Software Engineer

Manchester (Hybrid)

Up to £70,000 + Benefits

Are you a Lead Software Engineer looking to work on large-scale digital transformation programmes that genuinely make an impact?

We're partnering with a leading technology consultancy delivering cutting-edge solutions across both public and private sector clients.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Building modern applications and services using technologies across the full stack
  • Developing cloud-native solutions, primarily within multi-cloud environments
  • Creating and maintaining CI/CD pipelines and automated deployment processes
  • Working with containers, serverless technologies, and infrastructure as code
  • Ensuring high standards across security, performance, accessibility, and code quality
  • Leading a team of Engineers (and remaining hands-on yourself!)

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.
