Senior Network Automation Engineer | West Midlands | Hybrid | 6 Month Contract | Inside IR35 | £600 per day

We're looking for an experienced Senior Network Automation Engineer to join our Network Automation Practice, delivering a high-profile transformation programme.

This is a hands-on delivery role where you'll help take network automation from proof of concept into production, building automation that supports real change windows across a large multi-vendor enterprise network.

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.
