We're Hiring Project Lead
Are you an experienced project leader who is passionate about developing learning experiences that make a real difference?
Transform Your Training works across the UK with charities, public services and corporate organisations to develop and deliver expert, trauma-informed and values-led learning and development services. Through our award-winning Training 4 Influence methodology, we help individuals, teams and organisations turn learning into action, strengthening practice and creating meaningful, lasting change.
We're looking for an experienced Project Lead to provide strategic leadership for our new National Careers Adviser CPD Programme, a complex, multi-year programme supporting careers advisers across England.
The programme will provide specialist professional development across key areas including SEND, mental health, care experience, alternative provision, future skills and working with parents and carers. Through online learning, webinars, Action Learning Sets, conferences and peer learning, it will help careers advisers build confidence, strengthen their practice and improve outcomes for young people, particularly those facing additional barriers to education, employment and opportunity.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

You'll combine strategic oversight with practical leadership, ensuring the programme meets its contractual commitments while remaining responsive to the careers landscape and the needs of advisers and the young people they support.
This is an exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys bringing people together around a shared purpose, balancing strategic thinking with practical action, and leading work that makes a difference in practice.
