Are you a proactive Portfolio Analyst who enjoys turning complex delivery information into clear, useful insight? You will join a central PMO and delivery function, supporting a high-profile change portfolio in a complex, regulated environment. You will help Sponsors, Executives, Change Committee and Board-level stakeholders understand progress, risks, dependencies, resources and financials, giving them the confidence to make timely, evidence-based decisions.
This role is ideal for someone who is analytical, organised and self-starting; someone who takes ownership, spots issues early, follows through on actions and brings structure and clarity to fast-moving change delivery.
What You Will Do
- You will join a social housing organisation to produce high-quality portfolio reports, dashboards and analysis, translating complex data into concise insight that highlights trends, exceptions, risks and emerging issues.
- You will maintain forward-looking views of portfolio activity, milestones, dependencies and cross-programme impacts, helping to identify conflicts, bottlenecks and sequencing risks before they affect delivery.
- You will work closely with Programme Delivery Managers, Sponsors and PMO colleagues to validate resource demand, capacity assumptions and delivery constraints.
- You will support governance forums through accurate pack preparation, documentation, follow-up and maintenance of key portfolio artefacts, including risks, actions and decisions.
- You will help improve PMO tools, templates, reporting standards and data quality, identifying opportunities to simplify, automate and reduce manual effort.
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.
