We’re working with a purpose-led consultancy looking for a Senior Data Engineer to take ownership of a key data function that sits at the heart of their client delivery. This is not a standard “keep the pipelines running” role. You’ll inherit an existing data pipeline framework, assess what is working, decide what needs improving or replacing, and take the lead on building a robust, scalable approach for the future.
What you’ll be doing
You’ll be responsible for owning and improving data pipelines that transform structured data into graph-based formats. You’ll work closely with consultants, software engineers, and client-facing teams to make sure data is accurate, usable, and meaningful.
Reasons to use Rodeo

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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
