Salary: £20,069.60 per annum (full-time equivalent: £25,087 per annum (pro rata))
Closing date: 28th July 2026 at 12 noon

Join us as an Assistant Shop Manager in our Henley shop and become an ambassador for our charity! We have a permanent part-time position available working 30 hours per week.

You will join a busy shop and will work alongside a team of volunteers helping to maximise the shop’s sales profits. Great customer service is crucial to what we do, so previous experience of charity retail would help you hit the ground running.

Full training will be provided, we are keen to work with people that have the right attitude so willingness to learn specific skills is equally as important as past experience. To thrive in this role, you will need a good eye for detail, strong organisational and IT skills, and the capability to manage volunteer teams in a variety of situations. You will be supported by the Shop Manager and Area Manager to achieve your objectives in these areas.

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.
