SAP HANA Database Engineer

We’re looking for an SAP HANA Database Engineer to join the Core Banking Enablement value stream within Core Banking CIO and help deliver change across Nationwide’s SAP landscape. You’ll use your HANA database expertise to design, implement and enhance secure, resilient and high-performing database platforms that underpin some of Nationwide’s most critical business services.

Our SAP HANA databases support large and complex S/4HANA platforms used across Nationwide’s Core Banking services. Working across strategic programmes and platform transformation initiatives, you’ll contribute to database installations, upgrades, migrations, performance improvements and the implementation of backup, recovery, high-availability and disaster-recovery capabilities.

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.
