Are you passionate about using technology to make a positive impact?
We’re looking for a curious and motivated Software Engineer to help enhance and support our Salesforce platform, driving smarter ways of working across Dogs Trust and helping us make a real difference for dogs everywhere. This is a great opportunity to use your technical skills for purpose — helping us innovate, collaborate, and deliver digital solutions that really matter. You don’t need to tick every box; what matters most is your attitude to learn, grow, and apply your skills creatively. We’re looking for people who pick things up quickly, communicate openly, and enjoy solving problems together, helping us find smarter, more effective ways to support our mission.
What does this role do?
As Software Engineer, you’ll:
- Design and develop Salesforce solutions to meet business requirements, in an environment where flows and third-party tools are widely used,
- Customise Salesforce solutions to meet the needs of the organisation,
- Work across other platforms to develop solutions and resolve incidents,
- Proactively collaborate with teams across the organisation to ensure solutions are fit-for-purpose and have the capacity to support as many dogs as possible,
- Communicate clearly and proactively; letting colleagues know if you’re stuck, sharing progress, and engaging others to help overcome challenges, even when it’s bad news.
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.
