About the Role:

This is a rare opportunity to join the newly established Transformation and Change Directorate at a pivotal moment in its development.

As one of our Project and Programme Managers, you'll lead some of the organisation's most significant transformation initiatives, helping to modernise services, introduce new technologies, improve ways of working and deliver lasting benefits across Scotland's prosecution service.

This is more than a delivery role. You'll help shape how change is delivered across COPFS, influencing our emerging project and programme management profession, establishing new ways of working and building delivery capability across the organisation.

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.
