We’re currently supporting a FTSE250 Wealth Management business who are continuing to invest heavily into their wider Technology, AI & Automation capability and are now looking to hire an Senior Developer (Integrations) into a newly evolving engineering environment.
This role sits within a small, hands-on team where the focus is very much around building, developing and supporting modern applications and integrations across both internal systems and external SaaS platforms.
Rather than a heavily architecture-led role, this position would suit someone who enjoys remaining close to the technology, owning development work directly whilst helping modernise integrations and improve connectivity across the wider business landscape.
The environment is heavily focused around Azure PaaS services, backend development and secure API-led integrations, with strong visibility across wider digital transformation and automation initiatives internally.
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.
