Senior Project Manager

Edinburgh – Hybrid Working
Salary: c£70,000

We’re working with a growing technology consultancy that is looking for a Senior Project Manager to join its delivery function at an exciting stage of growth. This is a brilliant opportunity for someone who enjoys taking ownership of complex client engagements, working closely with technical teams, and bringing structure, pace, and confidence to software delivery projects.

The role

  • Take ownership of the full project lifecycle, from early client engagement and scope definition through to successful delivery and closure.
  • Lead software delivery projects using agile principles.
  • Act as the bridge between clients and technical teams, ensuring project scope, timelines, deliverables, risks, and expectations are clearly understood.
  • Manage multiple concurrent projects across varied customer environments.
  • Produce project plans, progress reports, requirements documentation, proposals, and stakeholder presentations.
  • Build trusted relationships with clients, partners, suppliers, and internal stakeholders to support successful delivery and ongoing engagement.
  • Help mature and improve delivery ways of working, sharing best practice and supporting a culture of continuous improvement.

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.
