Senior QA Engineer

We're supporting a purpose-driven organisation at the heart of the UK's transition to a low-carbon future, and they're looking to hire a Senior QA Engineer to play a key role in delivering reliable, resilient, and high-quality software solutions.
As the quality owner within an Agile Scrum team, you'll drive testing best practice, champion a quality-first culture, and work closely with engineers, product teams, and stakeholders to ensure software is delivered to the highest standards.
What you'll be doing
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.
