  • Supporting and overseeing payroll processes to ensure accuracy, compliance, and an excellent employee experience.
  • Partnering with HR and business leaders to provide expert guidance on reward-related matters, including pay benchmarking, salary structures, and employee benefits.
  • Leading cyclical reward activities, including annual pay reviews and bonus processes.
  • Managing relationships with external reward, benefits, and payroll providers.
  • Analysing reward and workforce data to provide insights and recommendations that support business decision-making.
  • Identifying opportunities to enhance reward offerings, improve processes, and drive operational efficiencies.
  • Supporting wider reward projects and contributing to the ongoing development of the organisation's reward strategy.

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.
