DEPARTMENT: Finance STATUS: Full-time, 37.5hrs per week, Permanent SALARY: Competitive, based on experience LOCATION: Manchester, Hybrid (applicants should be based in or willing to relocate to the Manchester area) SCOPE: Global role with international exposure
THE POSITION We’re searching for a Project Analyst to join us at an exciting stage of our growth. This is a fantastic opportunity to contribute to impactful consultancy work, help shape client outcomes, and play an important part in the continued development of our services. In this role, you will support a group project portfolio, working across a globally connected business with international exposure.

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.
