Do you have previous retail experience and a creative eye for visual merchandising? Then we’d be keen to hear from you!

St Leonard’s Hospice is recruiting a Cover Shop Manager to provide essential management cover across a group of our charity shops based in the South of York including Selby and Pocklington. This is an exciting and varied role where you will get the chance to work with lots of colleagues and ensure that all shop processes are effectively managed and that a high level of customer service is maintained at all times on manager’s days off.

This is a great opportunity to gain retail management experience and colleagues who have previously been in this role have moved internally into other shop management positions.

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.
