Contract Details
- Day rate: £600–700, Inside IR35
- Location: Bristol / London (hybrid — 3 days onsite per week)
Job Description:
A leading telecommunications company is seeking a senior transformation professional to operate at partner or senior consulting level across SAP, AI, Finance, and enterprise technology. This is not a delivery manager role — it is a business transformation position that shapes strategy, influences executives, owns business cases, and guides complex programmes from ambition to measurable outcomes.
What You'll Deliver
- Shape a business-led SAP and AI transformation strategy linking technology modernisation to measurable business value
- Identify high-value AI opportunities across Finance and enterprise processes, prioritising use cases that can scale beyond pilot
- Create executive-ready business cases, investment narratives, roadmap options, and value-tracking mechanisms
- Guide SAP transformation decisions across S/4HANA, SAP Business AI, SAP BTP, data, integration, process simplification, and clean-core design
- Design transformation governance — decision forums, value assurance, dependency management, executive reporting
- Constructively challenge vendors and delivery partners to keep recommendations value-led and realistic
- Act as trusted advisor to senior Finance, Digital, Commercial, and Technology stakeholders
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.
