Are you passionate about food, eager to learn, and excited by the buzz of a professional kitchen? We’re looking for a motivated Commis Chef Apprentice to join our team and develop skills needed for a successful career in the hospitality industry. As part of your apprenticeship, you’ll work alongside experienced chefs, gaining hands-on experience.

Apprenticeships include time away from working for specialist training. You’ll study to gain professional knowledge and skills.

Essential qualifications:

  • GCSE in:
    • Maths (grade 9-4)
    • English (grade 9-4)
  • Share if you have other relevant qualifications and industry experience. The apprenticeship can be adjusted to reflect what you already know.

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.
