Working with a fabulous Company Secretary who I have known for over 15 years, in an organisation that is growing and becoming more and more successful should surely be enough to read on!!
The clear benefit of working in a small team is the variety of responsibilities you will have. In addition, exposure to senior leadership within the organisation will be invaluable to you as your career grows. This is because those interpersonal skills that you will be building up will be what becomes so important to you the more senior you become in your career. The role will have all the mix you would expect of a role at this level at a PLC.
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.
