Overview We are currently looking for experienced Programme/Project Managers within Telecoms, an area in which we have unparalleled pedigree. Our work within this domain has led to the creation of numerous world-firsts and paradigm shifting technologies. As you would be joining at a senior level within the organisation, you will have the opportunity to lead programmes that help our clients develop solutions that solve some of the world’s most complex engineering, technology, and design problems including those like where we have developed the world’s most dense cellular network for Ocado or the world’s largest commercial airborne antenna for SPL. What to Expect The Programme Management sector within Cambridge Consultants is an absolutely essential function to enable delivery of these projects, and our PMs are viewed as integral leaders. Due to the nature of Cambridge Consultants, we work with our clients to not only solve, but identify the technology challenges that they are facing now, and into the future. Our PMs play a key role working directly with these clients alongside our Business Developers and Technical Leads from the very beginning to uncover these challenges, and then help guide them to a solution. You’ll have the support of our Subject Matter Experts to size and shape the project that best delivers the solution; you will help identify an approach that fits both Cambridge Consultants and the client, as well as pulling together and driving the project teams. They will come from a variety of disciplines including Signal Processing, Artificial Intelligence, Digital Systems, Radio Frequency, Embedded Software among others. Due to the extremely complex, technical, and innovative nature of the projects, and your involvement being not only in the administration, but definition and leadership of such projects we’re looking for candidates that bring a combination of highly developed project management skills, people skills, as well as hands-on technical industry experience to bear. This role provides the chance to actively contribute to the global technology landscape, successfully delivering some of the most innovative projects in the world, as well as offering significant opportunity for progression within our business. Due to the experience that our Programme Managers gain, as well as the exceptionally high regard that we hold them in, there have been numerous occasions where members of the team have moved on to even loftier height including multiple active members of our Executive team.

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.
