Description

Start Your Career in Fast-Paced Logistics!

Are you confident on the phone, organised, and looking to start your career in customer service? Join Speedy Freight, a growing national logistics company where no two days are the same.

We provide same-day delivery solutions to businesses across the UK and Europe, handling urgent and time-critical shipments. As part of one of the UK’s leading supply chain networks, we pride ourselves on being reliable, responsive, and customer-focused.

Our mission is simple:
“To be the first choice to deliver – every single time.”


Key Responsibilities

The Role

As a Customer Service Advisor, you’ll be at the heart of our operation. You’ll speak to customers, manage bookings, and help ensure deliveries run smoothly from start to finish. This is a great opportunity for someone at entry level who wants to develop communication, sales, and logistics experience.

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.
