The Opportunity

We are looking for an experienced Test Manager / Test Lead to join a major global BlackRock Aladdin transformation programme within the Wealth & Asset Management sector.

This is an exciting opportunity to play a key role in a large-scale Aladdin implementation, taking ownership of testing delivery across UAT, Parallel Run and go-live readiness.

  • Define and execute test strategies, plans, governance frameworks and exit criteria.
  • Oversee UAT, Parallel Run, defect management and go-live readiness activities.
  • Work closely with BlackRock teams, senior client stakeholders and programme delivery teams.
  • Drive accountability, resolve testing challenges and maintain delivery momentum.
  • Ensure testing aligns with business requirements, operational processes and programme milestones.
  • Manage testing risks, dependencies, reporting and stakeholder communications.

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.
