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.

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You'll be involved throughout the full programme lifecycle, from fit-to-standard workshops and solution design through to testing, go-live and post-implementation stabilisation. This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys solving business challenges through technology, challenging design assumptions and ensuring high-quality SAP solutions are delivered.
As the programme progresses, you'll become a trusted technology partner to Finance and Procurement stakeholders, helping to optimise processes, improve user experience and drive continuous improvement across the SAP landscape.
Your Responsibilities Will Include:
- Contributing to fit-to-standard workshops across Finance and Procurement processes.
- Reviewing and constructively challenging configuration designs and functional specifications produced by implementation partners.
- Taking ownership of defined areas of the SAP solution and ensuring design quality throughout delivery.
- Supporting integration design across S/4HANA, Concur, Ariba and BlackLine.
- Gathering, analysing and documenting business and technical requirements.
- Participating in integration testing and User Acceptance Testing activities.
- Creating realistic test scenarios that reflect end-to-end Finance and Procurement processes.
- Supporting end-user training and business readiness activities.
- Assisting with go-live, hypercare and stabilisation activities.
- Identifying opportunities to improve processes and enhance the effectiveness of the SAP Finance landscape.
