Overview

A global Insurance organisation is looking for a Senior Project Manager required to lead a global data centre and cloud transformation programme. The role will focus on migrating business-critical applications into standardised infrastructure and cloud environments, driving consolidation, improving security, and reducing operational complexity across a global organisation.

Responsibilities

  • Lead the delivery of large-scale application and infrastructure migration projects.
  • Develop and manage project plans, milestones, budgets, risks, and dependencies.
  • Coordinate application owners, technical teams, vendors, and stakeholders globally.
  • Plan and oversee migration waves, workshops, testing, and cutover activities.
  • Provide project governance, reporting, and updates to senior stakeholders and steering committees.
  • Deliver through a mix of Agile (Azure DevOps) and Waterfall methodologies.

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.
