The Role
We're looking for experienced Senior Technical Leads to own key technology domains and migration workstreams on a major financial services platform modernisation programme, migrating a global VMware estate of 250,000+ VMs to OpenShift.
This is a hands-on delivery role, not a purely advisory one. You'll combine deep technical infrastructure knowledge with delivery leadership, owning outcomes, resolving complex technical challenges, and coordinating across engineering, architecture, operations and programme teams.
What You'll Do
- Lead a defined technology domain or migration workstream
- Own technical direction, decisions and delivery outcomes
- Drive migration and platform modernisation activity through to completion
- Identify and remove technical blockers, risks and dependencies
- Stay hands-on while providing technical leadership
- Represent your workstream in governance and technical review forums
- Engage confidently with senior engineers, architects and executive stakeholders
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.
