About Us

We're Transform.

Transform is a fresh alternative to Big Consulting. As an end-to-end transformation partner, we define, design, build and operate systems that solve our clients’ toughest challenges and seize their biggest opportunities. That often means combining strategy, data, AI, technology, and change management. Sometimes we manage and operate the systems we create; other times, we hand it over for the client to run - standing by to make improvements when things change. It all comes down to making an impact: improving lives, supporting citizens, streamlining workflows, and making the world a better place. We specialise in public sector and public-facing organisations - from government agencies and local authorities to energy, utilities, transportation and healthcare. We also work for some of the world’s most dynamic brands across automotive, retail, financial services, and consumer goods. We work closely (often on site) with our clients; to deliver impact you are keen to help us build the workforce of the future, we should talk.

We’re all in! That's what gets us out of bed every day. We hope you feel the same.

The Role

The Senior Data Engineer will play a key role within an Agile delivery team to design, build, and maintain robust, scalable data solutions. You will contribute to the delivery of a range of data products that support business intelligence, reporting, analytics, and AI-driven use cases, ensuring data is accessible, reliable, secure, and fit for purpose.

Working collaboratively across multidisciplinary teams, you will engage closely with other engineers, product owners, business analysts, data architects, data analysts, project managers, and data scientists to understand business requirements and translate them into effective technical solutions. You will be responsible for developing and optimising data pipelines and integrating diverse data sources within cloud-based data platforms.

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.
