- Maintaining end-to-end requirements traceability across analysis, design, development, testing, and deployment activities.
- Collaborating with architects and delivery teams to ensure solution designs reflect agreed business requirements and processes.
- Supporting UAT planning, including creation of test scenarios and scripts, coordination of execution, defect clarification, and preparation of evidence to support business sign-off.
- Identifying and documenting dependencies, assumptions, risks, and issues arising from requirements, process analysis, and testing activities, escalating where appropriate.
- Acting as a key interface between business stakeholders and delivery teams, ensuring requirements, processes, and business needs are clearly understood and represented.
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.
