About the Role

We are recruiting on behalf of a client seeking an experienced and highly effective Project Manager or Senior Project Coordinator to join a key delivery programme. This is not a technical or IT-focused project management role. Instead, we are looking for a delivery-focused professional who can bring together multiple workstreams, manage dependencies, maintain momentum, and ensure successful delivery against an established plan.

The successful candidate will be a confident communicator and relationship builder who can engage with a wide range of stakeholders, ask the right questions, challenge constructively, and keep teams aligned on priorities and milestones.

Key Responsibilities

  • Drive delivery against an existing project plan, ensuring key milestones and deadlines are achieved.
  • Coordinate and align multiple workstreams, identifying risks, dependencies, and potential blockers.
  • Maintain project momentum by tracking progress and holding stakeholders accountable for actions and deliverables.
  • Facilitate effective communication between teams and stakeholders to ensure alignment and understanding.
  • Challenge constructively where required, driving decisions and actions forward.
  • Monitor delivery progress, assess impacts on timelines, and re-plan where necessary.
  • Ensure clear ownership of actions, deliverables, and deadlines across the project.
  • Build strong relationships across various stakeholder groups, creating collaboration and consensus.

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.
