Ready to take the next step into operational management?

Edward Vinson is looking for a motivated and organised Assistant Labour Operations Manager to join our Farm team.

This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys working with people, coordinating busy daily operations and making sure the right people are in the right place at the right time. You’ll work closely with the Labour Operations Manager, Harvest Manager, and Team Leaders to help deliver an efficient, productive, and safe operation.

For an ambitious individual, this is a great opportunity to develop your leadership and operational management experience and progress within the business.

What you'll be doing

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Planning, organising, and managing staff on site on a daily basis, including monitoring attendance and absence.
  • Monitoring individual and team performance and helping ensure productivity targets are achieved.
  • Working closely with Team Leaders to monitor harvest and husbandry activities and address any operational issues.
  • Supporting the Harvest Manager with crop estimates, planning, and daily activities.
  • Reporting directly to the Labour Operations Manager and providing regular operational updates.
  • Organising transport arrangements and completing daily registers when required.
  • Completing and maintaining accurate paperwork and records relating to the role.
  • Monitoring and implementing Health & Safety policies and procedures.
  • Supporting and completing risk assessments and actively contributing to a positive Health & Safety culture.
  • Helping identify opportunities to improve efficiency, organisation, and performance across the operation.

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.
