The Opportunity

We are seeking a high-calibre Senior Business Analyst to play a pivotal role in a major public sector digital transformation programme based in Newport. Working within agile, multidisciplinary teams across the discovery, alpha, beta, and live phases, you will bridge the gap between user needs, policy intent, operational processes, and technical delivery.

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.
