About Verve

Curiosity has always been at the heart of what we do.

At Verve, we help some of the world's leading brands understand people better, make smarter decisions and stay ahead of change. We do this by combining the best of human understanding, cultural insight and emerging technology.

No two challenges are the same. One day we might be helping a client understand a changing consumer landscape. The next, exploring future scenarios through AI-powered simulations or uncovering new opportunities for growth.

We're not interested in doing things the way they've always been done. We believe the most interesting questions require fresh thinking, different perspectives and a willingness to experiment. That's why our teams work across disciplines, combining insight, consultancy, culture, strategy, innovation and technology to solve complex problems in new ways.

If you're excited by learning, building new skills and working on challenges that genuinely stretch your thinking, you'll feel right at home here.

About the role

We're looking for a curious, ambitious consultant who wants to build their career at the intersection of insight, consultancy and AI.

You'll work alongside experienced consultants to solve client challenges, deliver impactful insight programmes and help clients understand people, markets and opportunities more clearly. You'll gain exposure to a wide range of sectors, methodologies and technologies while building the expertise, confidence and judgement needed to become an exceptional consultant.

This is a role for someone who is already performing strongly, learns quickly and is eager to accelerate their growth. Someone who takes ownership, embraces new challenges and is excited by the opportunity to build expertise, make an impact and continually raise the bar for themselves and those around them.

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.
