About the role

We are looking for an organised, reliable and proactive Admin Assistant to join our team in Edinburgh.
This is a varied role supporting the team with the day-to-day administration that keeps the business running smoothly. We are a young, dynamic team who work hard, enjoy what we do and also like to socialise together.

We are flexible about the level of experience you bring. What matters most to us is that you are dependable, highly organised, communicate well and are comfortable using your own initiative.
The role will initially be around 20–25 hours per week, with flexibility around how those hours are structured. There is also potential for the role and hours to grow over time for the right person.

  • Supporting the team with general day-to-day administration
  • Organising travel, accommodation and related arrangements
  • Helping coordinate meetings, diaries and team activities
  • Managing and responding to telephone calls and general enquiries
  • Organising company documents, records and other administrative matters
  • Supporting the smooth running of the Edinburgh office
  • Coordinating with suppliers and other external contacts where required
  • Helping the team stay organised and making sure administrative tasks don’t get missed
  • Identifying ways that our internal processes and procedures could work better
  • Taking ownership of ad hoc tasks and projects as they arise

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.

Only hits

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

This isn’t a role where every task will always arrive with a detailed set of instructions. We are looking for someone who is comfortable thinking, “I can sort that,” and then finding a sensible way to get it done.

What we’re looking for

The right person will be:

  • Highly organised: you enjoy keeping on top of multiple tasks and making sure things get finished
  • Reliable: if you say you’re going to do something, the team can trust that it will get done
  • A strong communicator: confident communicating with colleagues, clients, suppliers and other contacts, both in writing and over the phone
  • Proactive: you notice what needs doing rather than always waiting to be asked
  • Flexible: you’re happy working in a growing business where priorities can sometimes change
  • Practical: when something needs solving, your instinct is to find a solution
  • Comfortable with technology: able to confidently use everyday office software and learn new systems
  • A team player: you enjoy being part of a collaborative team and helping other people do their jobs well

  • The opportunity for your hours and responsibilities to grow as the business develops
  • A friendly, hardworking and sociable team
  • A varied role where you’ll have the freedom to take initiative and make improvements
