Why Apply?
This opportunity involves working within a fast-paced, delivery-focused environment to build greenfield applications from the ground up. Supporting a well-established services organisation, you'll play a key role in replacing manual processes with scalable, modern systems.
Operating as part of an embedded engineering team, this role offers high ownership, autonomy and the chance to influence architecture, tooling and delivery approach.
Senior PHP Engineer Responsibilities
- Design and develop greenfield web-based applications.
- Translate defined requirements and low-level designs into high-quality, production-ready code.
- Contribute to technical decision-making across architecture, structure and development tooling.
- Work closely within an embedded team, supporting agile delivery and engineering best practices.
- Deliver robust, maintainable solutions within defined timelines, ensuring quality and performance.
- Build applications within a Windows-based, on-premise environment without reliance on cloud infrastructure.
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.
