About the Opportunity
Great opportunity to work for a boutique consultancy focused on helping clients address their most complex technology resilience and operational continuity challenges. The team engages at all levels but specialises in advising boards and senior management, bringing first-hand experience of the unique resilience challenges faced by leadership teams in an increasingly complex and interconnected technology landscape.
About the Role
Our client is seeking an experienced Senior Operational and Technology Resilience Consultant to play a critical role in helping organisations strengthen their technology, operational, and cyber resilience capabilities. This role is ideal for a technically minded professional who excels at advising organisations on resilience strategy, recovery planning, and continuity across complex technology environments.
In this role, you will apply deep expertise across technology resilience, service continuity, and recovery engineering, with cybersecurity as a key integrated component. You will lead assessments of technology resilience maturity, operational resilience capabilities, and enterprise recovery readiness, using recognised industry frameworks. A core part of your work will involve developing pragmatic resilience and recovery roadmaps, identifying architectural and operational vulnerabilities, and mapping critical service dependencies to ensure organisations can withstand, adapt to, and recover from disruption.
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.
