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.

We are a Force for Good

We help our customers with the big stuff, for the moments that matter: Pensions, Savings, and Investments. We do this through the Aegon Platform, an online service which lets our customers keep the important things in one place, so it’s easier for them to make decisions and plan for their future.

We’ll train you

We’re not looking for financial experts (though they are very welcome!). When you join us, you’ll go straight into our Customer Care Training Academy and learn from some of our experts. Before you deal with customers, we’ll give you the skills and knowhow to delight and support them. All you need to bring is your hunger to learn, a drive to solve problems and the compassion to keep your customers wellbeing at the heart of every interaction.

We’d love to hear from you if:

  • You’ve got experience in customer service (contact centre, face-to-face, retail, hospitality – that kind of thing).
  • You’re a good communicator with an eye for detail.
  • You can put yourself in a customer’s shoes, taking ownership and working flexibly to meet their expectations.
  • You know your way around typical Microsoft Office tools like Outlook, Teams, Word, Excel

How we’ll look after you:

  • Our starting salary is £26,228 (or £13.45ph).
  • We’ll help you develop and grow with our Pay & Progression scheme. By becoming an expert in your role and delivering exceptional service at the highest quality, your financial reward can grow up to £33,240 (£17.05ph)
  • We’re serious about your future and our enhanced pension scheme is now in place. We ask you to contribute 3% of your salary to your pension and we’ll put in 9%. If you decide to contribute more, we’ll match it up to a combined total of 20% of your salary (that’s 7% from you and 13% from us).
  • A discretionary annual bonus, depending on personal and company performance.
  • 34 days leave per year (including bank holidays, pro-rated for part-time)
  • We also offer private medical cover, life assurance, critical illness cover, enhanced parental leave and a variety of lifestyle benefits to help our staff live their best lives, including retail discount vouchers, cycle2work scheme, subsidised restaurant, online GP appointments and travel loans.

What happens next?

Once you’ve submitted your application, you’ll receive an email inviting you to complete a short series of interactive tasks. These are designed by our trusted partners, Arctic Shores, and aim to give us a better understanding of your skills, behaviours, and how you approach different situations.

If you’re successful at this stage, you’ll be invited to a conversation with one of our Talent Acquisition Consultants. This chat will focus more on how you think and respond to various scenarios, rather than your previous experience. If all goes well at this stage, you’ll be invited to interview in person at our Edinburgh office on either Thursday 27 August 2026 or Tuesday 8 September 2026. You can find out more about the next steps here.

The legal bits

We’ll need you to confirm you have the right to work in the UK. If we offer you a job and you accept, there are some checks we need to complete before you can start with us. This will include a credit and criminal record check, as well as providing satisfactory references.

Equal Opportunity Employer

We are an equal opportunities employer and welcome applications from all suitably qualified persons regardless of their age, disability, race, religion/belief, gender, sexual orientation or gender identity.
