The Opportunity

We are currently seeking an Administrator to join us in our Edinburgh Capital Square office.

We can offer you a welcoming environment to work in, a strong learning culture, and the opportunity to play an important role in our national functional support teams that look after a group of almost 4,000 talented engineers, planners, and scientists nationwide.

You will provide general admin support to technical teams to assist them to effectively manage their projects. Deadlines are ever-changing and diary management is a big part of this role so you will need to be comfortable using Microsoft Outlook.

Your daily responsibilities can vary from scheduling meetings, preparing agendas, taking and distributing minutes, and arranging all the necessary conference room facilities. You may be required to arrange travel and accommodation for colleagues at all levels and organize office events. You will assist with the preparation/formatting of documents using the Microsoft Office suite (Word/Excel/PowerPoint) and ensure filing and archiving systems are maintained.

About You

You will have previous experience of working in a busy office environment and have strong skills in Microsoft Office. You will have strong communication and organizational skills. You will have a high degree of self-management, initiative, reliability, and flexibility to ensure that the best possible service is given to internal and external clients.

You will be a team player with a positive attitude and have a willingness to help others.

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.
