Are you an experienced Test Manager who can see beyond individual applications and drive quality across complex, enterprise-wide transformation programmes?
We're partnering with a globally recognised financial services organisation on a Test Manager / Quality Engineering Lead contract opportunity supporting a major Financial Crimes Transformation programme. This is a high-impact role where you'll be responsible for leading testing across multiple platforms and workstreams, while helping shape and mature the organisation's quality engineering capability.
This role is ideal for someone who combines strong test leadership with a modern quality engineering mindset, bringing expertise in process improvement, automation, stakeholder management, and end-to-end customer journey testing. Previous experience within large Financial payments companies will be a significant advantage, enabling you to add value quickly within the programme.
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.
