Our Public Sector client based in Milton Keynes are seeking a DV Cleared Operations Incident Commander to join on a 6 month rolling, long term contract.

If you are someone who has operated in Senior positions, not necessarily in NOC, SOC or Cyber but any DV Cleared environment and you have strong leadership, stakeholder management and experience making critical decisions then this could be a fantastic role for you to expand your career portfolio.

Role Purpose

  • Lead real-time operational decision-making across multiple critical domains.
  • Maintain a single operational picture and direct integrated incident response.
  • Act as the on-shift command authority in a 24×7 environment.

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.
