Assistant Manager at Kanada-Ya
Salary, Permanent Contract, No Early Starts, Great work-life Balance
Kanada-Ya is an independent chain of award-winning Ramen bars, so far spanning 4 countries. We currently have 6 super busy locations here in the capital, each serving a delicious selection of Japanese delights.
Authenticity is at the heart of our menu and we import many of our ingredients from Japan to help us achieve the rich, deep, and deeply loved flavours that we are famous for.
Our speciality Tonkotsu ramen boasts an 18-hour cooked pork bone broth, batch crafted with love using traditional techniques learned from the Motherland. Added to this succulent, rich, and flavourful broth are Hakata style wheat noodles, beautifully braised chashu pork belly, and a superb selection of toppings all sourced from Japan. Our bold bowls are much beloved by our regular diners and newcomers alike.
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.
