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.

The Cyber Security Process Alignment & Supplier Onboarding Consultant operates within the Operational Integrator (OI) function to support the onboarding of new service providers into a multi-supplier (SIAM) environment within a Defence programme.
The role focuses on translating established security processes, policies, and governance into structured onboarding materials, ensuring that incoming suppliers clearly understand their obligations and are aligned from day one.
Working closely with Security Assurance, Incident, and Vulnerability Management leads, the consultant ensures that supplier processes are understood, integrated, and evidenced, rather than redesigned. The outcome is a consistent, controlled onboarding approach that enables suppliers to operate effectively within the existing security operating model.
This is a governance, integration, and enablement role, not a hands-on operational security or engineering function.
