About Itad
We are a global consultancy providing evidence, learning and strategy services to help solve complex challenges.
We aim to build a more equitable, sustainable, and secure world by helping organisations use evidence to learn and take action.
In fast-moving, complex environments, we create space to reflect, make sense of change, and enable informed decisions. Through evidence, insight, and learning, we unlock strategies for better performance and lasting change.
About the role
This role sits with our Inclusive Growth and Climate Change (IGCC) practice, which recognises that the threats posed by climate change are global and have the potential to reverse hard-fought development gains. The Analyst role provides support across the whole project portfolio including desk-based research, business development and project delivery.
The role will work closely with Business Development Officers, Project Officers and a Practice Administrator to provide flexible support primarily across project work with the remainder of the time focused on business development (both pre-positioning and bids).
The ability to undertake discrete tasks across multiple bids and projects is essential with a wide variety of tasks and deliverables so managing your time pro-actively is essential. You will be supporting bids and projects across all aspects of our global client base including FCDO, Foundations and others.
You will ideally have some understanding of Business Development and/or the Project Management lifecycle, although this isn’t essential.
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.
