About the Role
As the new Change Manager you'll be managing a number of workstreams — some yours to run directly, others run by other people you'll coordinate — and it's on you to keep them all moving, flag the risks early, and make sure nothing falls through the cracks. Working on our strategic growth pillars of Sales and Automation, you'll liaise with stakeholders between legal, product, marketing, finance and beyond. You won't be processing requests or ticking boxes; you'll be the person who spots the problem three steps before anyone else does, and gets the right people in a room to fix it.
What You'll Do
Automation and Sales move fast and don't wait for a project plan to catch up — here's where you'll spend your time:
- Own the roadmap: Build and maintain a clear, realistic roadmap for your pillars — sequencing projects, flagging critical path items, and calling out risk before it becomes a fire.
- Orchestrate, don't just coordinate: Guide cross-functional working teams — Product, Engineering, Marketing, Legal, Finance, Compliance — through each project's lifecycle, keeping everyone aligned on milestones without ever having formal authority over them.
- Unblock relentlessly: Spot bottlenecks and dependencies before they cause delays, resolve what you can yourself, and escalate what genuinely needs a senior steer.
- Design your own operating rhythm: There's no fixed methodology here to fight against — you'll define your own project structure, meeting cadence, and reporting rhythm from scratch, the way you see fit.
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.
What You'll Bring
- 5+ years in project or programme management: Ideally with product-related delivery under your belt — if you've come up through consultancy, we know you'll hit the ground running even with a bit less time in-role.
- Product fluency: You can hold your own in a conversation with a product team, understand the trade-offs and constraints at play, and won't get bamboozled.
- Cross-functional credibility: A proven track record delivering across business functions, building trust and goodwill rather than relying on authority you don't have.
- Comfort with ambiguity: You're not looking for a rulebook — you bring a change-management toolkit and the instinct to "make it happen, make it work," pivoting as the pace demands.
- An eye for the threads others miss: You naturally connect what's happening across silos and can say "based on all of that, here's what we should actually be doing."
Rewards and Benefits
We truly care about our people so in return for your work, you’ll get:
- Vacation: 25 days (which increases to 28 days after 2 years of service) plus UK Bank Holidays
- Learning: personal development allowance of £1000 per year
- Health and wellbeing: private medical insurance and healthcare cash plan, a variety of health and wellbeing events to focus on mental health, Ride to Work scheme (savings on bikes and accessories)
- Future and family: pension contributions of 4% (increases with tenure) and life insurance of 4x of your base salary
- Flexibility: work from anywhere for one month per year, 2 annual volunteer days, 2 personal days when life throws you a curveball and 'Summer Fridays'
- Rewards: get points through our colleague-to-colleague recognition programme to spend on hotels, gift cards, donations to charity and more
- Social: optional social gatherings, daily breakfast and snacks, social events
- ESG: CSR, Environment and Diversity & Inclusion (including Women at Third Bridge, Pride and Blkbridge)
- Frontline Innovation: your chance to share your ideas for improvement through Hackathons and other events
