Project Manager
We’re looking for an experienced Project Manager to lead the delivery of complex technology initiatives within a world-class scientific research environment.
You’ll work across research computing, enterprise IT, scientific applications, infrastructure, security and integration, coordinating technical teams and scientific stakeholders to ensure critical projects are delivered effectively.
This is not a standard corporate IT Project Manager position. You’ll be working in an environment supporting scientists and researchers using advanced computing and technology to enable cutting-edge research.
What you’ll be doing
- Leading complex technology and research-computing projects from planning through to delivery
- Managing project plans, milestones, risks, issues and dependencies
- Coordinating teams across HPC, infrastructure, security, applications and integration
- Working closely with scientists, researchers, engineers and senior technical stakeholders
- Running Agile/Scrum delivery processes
- Providing clear governance, reporting and stakeholder communication
- Identifying delivery risks and ensuring issues are resolved effectively
- Managing dependencies across multiple technical workstreams
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.
