Job Opportunity: Business Support Consultant
Do you enjoy bringing people together to deliver meaningful colleague activity that makes a real difference? We’re looking for someone who brings energy, sound judgement, and a genuine passion for colleague experience, and who is comfortable balancing multiple priorities in a fast-paced, evolving environment.
This role sits in Business Services, bringing teams together to deliver critical support across the Retail and Customer Operations functions. In Colleague Enablement, we work closely with senior leaders and partners across the business to help shape and coordinate people priorities, ensuring activity is joined up and clearly understood across both local and central initiatives.
Role Overview
As a Business Support Consultant, you will help drive colleague enablement activity across Retail and Customer Operations, supporting priorities such as Inclusion and Diversity, Reward and Recognition, Culture, Talent, and Colleague Listening. It is a role with real reach and visibility, helping to shape activity that has an impact across the colleague agenda and supports great customer outcomes. This is also a strong opportunity to broaden your experience across colleague enablement and build exposure to senior stakeholder engagement in a varied, high-profile role.
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.
