Are you a good communicator with experience in customer service? Do you have the confidence to advise and influence colleagues and stakeholders at all levels? If the answers to the above are yes, then this opportunity could be for you.

Working within the Customer Services, Operations and Archives Directorate at the National Records of Scotland (NRS), we are looking for Customer Services Officers to help, advise and support our customers in accessing information, records and historical archives.

As part of a team, you will work onsite to help our customers front of house in a variety of ways, including providing one to one assistance in technology use, retrieving records, scanning and ensuring our records are accessible. Additionally, you will process entries to our public registration records and answer telephone and e-mail enquiries.

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.
