The Opportunity

Our Degree Apprenticeship offers you the opportunity to apply your academic learning in a real-world business context and accelerate the start of your career through our three-year combined study and work programme.

You will gain a recognised degree from a renowned top-tier university (University of Exeter) – without tuition or student loan debt.

As an integral member of the team, you’ll develop new knowledge, skills, and ideas that will enable you to add real change to the business and lay foundation for a prosperous and challenging career.

The programme will begin in September 2026 and further information on the course can be found on the University of Exeter website.

Our Support

We will support you in your learning and development both on and off the job through a variety of avenues:

  • 20% of your time during the working week will be allocated to your university studies, in partnership with the University of Exeter.
  • We will give you an internal mentor to provide career and professional development guidance.
  • You will have regular check-in meetings with your line manager to evaluate your progress, both in work and in your studies.

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.
