The Opportunity

An established and successful business is looking for a proactive and detail-oriented IT Support Technician to join its internal IT team.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys working in a fast-paced environment and is keen to develop their technical skills while providing a high-quality support service across the organisation.

What you'll do

  • Interesting projects: Contribute to initiatives that improve the way IT services are delivered across the business.
  • Career development: Gain exposure to modern cloud technologies, with ongoing training, support and mentoring.
  • Collaborative culture: Join a supportive team that values knowledge sharing, continuous improvement and service excellence.

The Role

As an IT Support Technician, you will act as the first point of contact for technical queries and issues, helping colleagues remain productive and fully supported.

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.
