Who we are

We're the largest pure play Quality Engineering consultancy in the UK. Over the past 6 years, we've redefined what quality and testing look like at 2i and to our clients. Born from a desire to view quality holistically across the entire SDLC, our Quality Engineers (QE's) are at the heart of delivering world-class consultancy services.

Why Us?

Proudly certified as a "Great Place to Work", 2i are the chosen employer of around 400 QE's and we're continuing our growth! We recently announced our eight-figure private equity funding injection as we aim to increase our revenue by more than £50m in the coming years, that is where you come in…

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.
