Key responsibilities include business and technical analysis throughout the project lifecycle, with the postholder working directly with business and technical stakeholders to understand problems, elicit and challenge requirements, analyse processes and data flows, develop solution options, and translate business needs into clear requirements for technical delivery teams. The role requires the postholder to personally lead requirements elicitation activities, support testing and service transition, and contribute to business change required for LSE to maximise benefit.

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.
