The Role

‘Source’ is the University of Bristol’s award-winning catering brand and are looking for an enthusiastic and friendly individual to take the role of Catering Assistant within its flagship outlet in Senate House. The role will suit someone who has experience in catering or hospitality and can demonstrate hospitable and hard-working qualities.

The contract is for term time only, (34 weeks of the year, paid over 12 months), working 35 hours a week spread over 5 days. As a result, you will get a generous amount of time off over the Christmas, Easter and Summer periods.

Whilst predominantly Monday – Friday hours, some evening and weekend work will potentially be included.

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.
