Our software pays 1 in 6 UK employees, supports over 12,000 schools, and is relied on by 91 of the top 100 UK accountancy firms.

Role Overview

We are looking for a highly organised and detail-oriented Learning Systems Specialist to take ownership of the day-to-day running and ongoing improvement of our Learning Management System.

This role is focused on managing the system, maintaining accurate learning data, supporting users, improving processes, and ensuring the LMS is easy to navigate and reliable for employees, managers and administrators.

You do not need to be a learning design specialist. Experience with Learning Management Systems is preferred, but not essential. We are most interested in someone who has a passion for learning and is confident working with systems, has excellent attention to detail, and can think carefully about how people experience and use a digital platform.

Key Responsibilities

LMS Administration and System Management

  • Manage the day-to-day administration of the LMS, including user accounts, groups, permissions, courses, learning paths, enrolments and completion records.
  • Upload, test, update and archive learning content.
  • Maintain accurate course information, categories, tags, due dates and learning assignments.
  • Ensure the LMS is well organised, easy to navigate and kept up to date.
  • Manage routine system checks to identify errors, broken links, outdated content or inaccurate records.
  • Coordinate with internal teams or external suppliers to resolve system issues.

User Experience and Platform Improvement

  • Review how employees, managers and administrators use the LMS and identify opportunities to improve the experience.
  • Test learning journeys before they go live to make sure they are clear, accurate and easy to complete.
  • Simplify processes where possible and reduce unnecessary steps for users.
  • Gather and respond to user feedback.
  • Create clear guidance and support materials for LMS users and administrators.
  • Support improvements to the structure, navigation and usability of the platform.

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.
