We're looking for a Customer Engagement Specialist to help ensure our customers have a genuine voice in shaping the services we provide.

- Gathering feedback through surveys, focus groups, workshops, and other engagement methods.
- Analysing customer insight and presenting findings to help inform decision-making.
- Working with colleagues across the organisation to increase participation and ensure a broad range of customer voices are heard.

- Supporting campaigns and initiatives on key issues affecting our customers and communities.
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.
