Partnering with public cloud providers, we work across the public and private sector to help customers build modern cloud platforms, embed platform engineering best practices, improve governance, and optimise costs to unlock developer velocity and accelerate delivery practices that make cloud a competitive advantage. As we continue to grow our client base and support increasingly complex transformation programmes, we are hiring a Client Principal / Technical Engagement Manager to take ownership and lead our major strategic accounts and act as the senior bridge between our technical teams and our clients’ senior stakeholders, to ensure value realisation, account growth and delivery.

Culture and Revenue focused Interview with CEO. Important You must either hold active SC, or be eligible for SC: British Passport or ILR To have resided in the UK for at least the last 5 years. Have no criminal records. Have no financial irregularities.

About the Role This is a senior, client-facing engagement leadership role responsible for driving account success, delivery quality, and commercial growth across Appvia’s high-profile cloud transformation engagements. You will own the relationship with one or more strategic accounts, working on various projects from cloud migration and automation to platform engineering and AI enablement programmes and will ensure that Appvia becomes a trusted, long-term strategic partner. This is a multi-faceted, post-sales role blending technical account leadership, delivery oversight, stakeholder engagement, and commercial ownership. You’ll work closely with our CEO, Head of Cloud Solutions, Head of Solutions Engineering, and Practice Leaders, ensuring clients see measurable value from our work while identifying opportunities to deepen and expand the partnership. This role is also billable and will play a key part in shaping Appvia’s future client engagement model and the evolution of a wider Client Solutions function. Key Requirements Client Relationship & Strategic Account Ownership Act as the senior lead contact for the client account: establish, nurture and deepen relationships at executive and senior stakeholder level. Understand the client’s business drivers, cloud strategy, pain-points (cost, governance, developer productivity, time-to-market), and position Appvia’s value accordingly. Develop account growth plans: identify and prioritise new opportunities, coordinate with sales/pre-sales, define proposals, and support contract negotiations. Monitor health of the account: satisfaction metrics, retention, usage of our platform/services, referenceability. Engagement & Delivery Oversight Oversee the portfolio of projects/engagements within the account: ensure governance, appropriate resourcing, milestone adherence, risk/issue management, budget/margin tracking. Provide technical oversight: ensure architectural integrity, alignment with cloud best-practices (governance, security, platform engineering), quality of deliverables and alignment to client strategy. Work with internal teams (engineering/architects, consulting, service delivery) to ensure capability and capacity for the account. Run customer workshops and educational sessions to help customers understand the journey, approach and expectations on adopting platform engineering, AI or data platforms. Act as an escalation point for major delivery issues, guiding resolution, and maintaining client confidence.

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.
