The Opportunity: Where Governance Meets Cutting-Edge Tech

Are you a Power Platform specialist who enjoys building elegant technical solutions rather than just following PMO processes?

We are representing a leading organisation within the UK transport sector that is currently navigating a historic period of transformation. As they move toward a major national merger, they are looking for a technical specialist to take ownership of their digital PMO landscape.

This is not a traditional PMO administration role. We need a "hands-on" architect to lead the roadmap for a sophisticated, enterprise-level PPM tool built on the Microsoft Power Platform. You will be the technical heart of a PMO that oversees 90 active projects and supports over 40 project managers.

The Mission: Innovate, Automate, and Integrate

As the internal Subject Matter Expert, you will bridge the gap between high-level governance and deep technical development. Your goal is to ensure the business has a "single source of truth" for decision-making through:

  • System Evolution: Managing and evolving "Project Prime," an advanced PPM tool leveraging Microsoft Planner, Power Apps, and Dataverse.
  • The AI Roadmap: Leading the charge into the future by implementing AI Builder and Copilot Studio to automate risk analysis and lessons learned.
  • Data Artistry: Creating high-impact Power BI dashboards using complex DAX and Time intelligence to provide senior leaders with actionable insights.
  • Strategic Integration: Optimising workflows between the Power Platform and external tools like DocuSign, SAP, and potentially Primavera P6.

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.
