Are you passionate about using data and insight to drive successful programme delivery?
We're looking for a Programme Analyst to join our Water Services team and play a key role in supporting the delivery of our Optimisation programme.
As a Programme Analyst, you'll work with a wide range of stakeholders to provide valuable analysis, reporting, planning, and risk management support. You'll help ensure programme performance is visible, activities stay on track, and informed decisions can be made using accurate and timely data.
This is an exciting opportunity for someone with strong analytical skills, excellent attention to detail, and experience supporting large programmes or projects within a complex operational environment.
Key Responsibilities

- Analyse and interpret data from multiple sources, identifying trends, risks, and opportunities.
- Support programme planning and governance activities, helping to manage timelines, milestones, and delivery schedules.
- Track programme risks, opportunities, dependencies, and mitigation actions, ensuring visibility across stakeholders.
- Coordinate communication and information sharing between internal teams, contractors, and programme partners.
- Prepare meeting materials, maintain action logs, and ensure programme documentation is accurate and up to date.
- Identify opportunities to improve programme efficiency, reporting processes, and planning tools.
- Support continuous improvement initiatives and ensure lessons learned are captured and applied.
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.
