Contract:

Details awaiting confirmation, including duration, day rate, and IR35 determination.

About the Role

Our client is looking for an experienced Project Manager to take ownership of technology projects from initial planning through to successful delivery.

This is a hands-on delivery role where you'll be responsible for managing projects end-to-end, bringing together different teams and stakeholders to make sure work is delivered on time, within scope and budget, and to the required standard.

You'll manage project plans, timelines, resources, budgets, dependencies, risks, and issues, while keeping stakeholders informed and ensuring projects continue moving forward in a fast-paced and changing environment.

Why This Role is Great

This is an opportunity to take genuine ownership of projects within a fast-paced technology environment.

You'll have the opportunity to:

  • Manage projects from inception through to completion.
  • Define project scope, objectives, and deliverables alongside key stakeholders.
  • Build and manage end-to-end project plans, including timelines, resources, and budgets.
  • Coordinate across different teams to manage dependencies and keep delivery on track.
  • Identify project risks and issues, putting appropriate mitigation and contingency plans in place.
  • Manage project forecasts, actual spend, resources, and suppliers.
  • Lead project meetings and provide clear updates to stakeholders.
  • Produce high-quality project reporting and maintain effective project documentation.
  • Guide projects through governance and Stage Gate processes.
  • Identify challenges early and adapt project plans as priorities and requirements change.

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.
