Senior Project Manager | ZEMA | Data Transformation | Energy Trading | Up to £900/Day Inside IR35 | Long-Term Rolling Contract

Senior Project Manager with a strong background delivering complex data, technology and business transformation projects within Energy Trading environments. This role sits at the heart of a fast-moving trading organisation, where data is becoming a strategic asset, enabling better trading decisions, operational efficiency and business innovation.

Backed by one of the world's largest energy organisations, they are modernising how data is managed, governed and utilised across the business.

This includes major transformation programmes across Data, Technology and Business Change, including:

  • Enterprise-wide Data Transformation initiatives
  • Delivery of strategic Data Platforms and Engineering capabilities
  • Data Governance, Data Quality and Regulatory initiatives
  • Business process optimisation across Trading, Risk and Operations
  • Delivery of complex cross-functional technology programmes

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.
