Operations Strategy Associate

About the Role

This is a high-impact, generalist operations role designed for adaptable problem-solvers who enjoy tackling a wide range of business challenges. You’ll analyze data, improve processes, build scalable workflows, and lead strategic initiatives that directly influence customers and business performance. The role offers exposure to Operations, Product, Engineering, Customer Success, and other cross-functional teams. You may work on analytics, automation, AI adoption, operational transformation, or even team leadership depending on business priorities and your strengths. You’ll operate in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment where initiative, curiosity, and practical problem-solving are highly valued. It’s an opportunity to take ownership of meaningful projects while developing broad experience across a growing technology organization.

Accountabilities

  • Analyze operational data to identify trends, bottlenecks, inefficiencies, and opportunities for improvement.
  • Build dashboards, reports, analytical models, and other tools that support informed business decisions.
  • Research, evaluate, and implement technologies such as AI solutions, automation tools, and internal platforms to improve operational effectiveness.
  • Design and improve processes, workflows, and operating procedures to increase efficiency, quality, scalability, and customer experience.
  • Lead cross-functional projects and strategic initiatives from planning through execution, working with Operations, Product, Engineering, Customer Success, and other teams.
  • Identify root causes of operational challenges and develop practical, scalable solutions.
  • Support initiatives aimed at improving payment processes, customer workflows, and operational performance.
  • Evaluate and onboard external technology or service providers where they can improve customer-facing operations.
  • Develop predictive or analytical models that help teams identify risks and take proactive action.
  • Depending on business needs and individual strengths, take responsibility for an Operations team and improve its performance, quality, and workflows.
  • Adapt responsibilities and priorities as business needs evolve, taking ownership of the projects where you can have the greatest impact.

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.
