Your Role
As Business Transformation Project Lead, you will drive strategic transformation initiatives that deliver meaningful business outcomes, improved services, and operational efficiency. Acting as the bridge between digital delivery teams and business operations, you will lead complex change programmes across people, processes, systems, and data, ensuring successful delivery aligned to organisational objectives.
Working closely with stakeholders across the business, you will redesign and optimise end-to-end processes, enhance customer and colleague experiences, and support the delivery of modern CRM and digital transformation initiatives. You will champion continuous improvement, ensure strong governance and risk management, and embed sustainable ways of working that deliver measurable benefits.
You will provide leadership across all stages of transformation, from shaping strategy and prioritising delivery through to system implementation, data migration, user adoption, training, and benefits realisation. Success in this role will be defined by high stakeholder engagement, improved business processes, strong user adoption, and the delivery of transformation programmes on time, within budget, and to agreed quality standards.
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.
