User Researcher

Location: Newcastle | Hybrid: 3 days per week in office

Salary: Up to £55,000

We’re looking for an experienced User Researcher to join a collaborative UX & Design team, working across a range of digital transformation projects.

You’ll lead user research from planning and recruitment through to conducting sessions, analysing findings and presenting insights. You’ll work closely with Product Owners, Service Managers, Designers and Developers to influence product direction and ensure users remain at the heart of delivery.

Key Responsibilities

  • Plan, recruit and conduct user research sessions.
  • Analyse findings and turn insights into actionable requirements.
  • Present research findings to teams and senior stakeholders.
  • Work closely with UX Designers and Developers throughout the delivery lifecycle.
  • Advocate for users within Agile/Scrum teams.
  • Help embed user-centred design best practice.

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.
