Test Subject Matter Expert (SME) – Unibanks Core Banking Platform

πŸ“ UK or Ireland

πŸ“„ Contract Opportunity (UK engagement via umbrella company)

I'm working with a leading banking client seeking an experienced Test SME to play a key role in the delivery of change across their Unibanks core banking platform.

This is an excellent opportunity to lead testing activities on a business-critical core banking system, ensuring releases are delivered safely, with robust test coverage and minimal risk to live banking operations.

Key Responsibilities

  • Owning the test strategy and test plans for Unibanks releases and enhancements.
  • Designing and executing functional, regression, integration and end-to-end testing.
  • Managing defects through to resolution with development and business teams.
  • Ensuring test environments and test data are ready for each delivery cycle.
  • Providing risk assessments, progress reporting and stakeholder updates.
  • Acting as the go-to Test SME for the platform across 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 β€” 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 β€” that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
