- Lead the development and continuous improvement of our compliance framework, ensuring that regulatory obligations are translated into practical controls, effective processes and robust evidence.
- Oversee the annual Business Separation submissions to Ofgem, maintain the Statement of Compliance, and provide assurance over the effectiveness of key controls.

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.
