About Cranstoun

Cranstoun provides services for adults and young people who need support around alcohol and other drugs, domestic abuse, housing and criminal justice. Our job is to make people feel safe and to empower them with the tools to create lasting change and reduce harm.

Our work is person-centred, with lived experience at its heart. We aim to inspire people to live healthier, safer lives, to stand for social justice and to remind every person that they are worthy of respect and compassion.

Cranstoun is in good shape, with an excellent reputation, high-quality services and strong reserves. Our rapid growth in recent years created a concomitant requirement for stronger governance, structures and processes, and the board has set a clear direction of travel for the organisation and the new Chief Executive, with a focus on consolidation, confidence and clarity of purpose.

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.
