This Role

This role is working for an organisation that will make you feel really good about yourself. It's one of those organisations that helps less developed countries with important projects that enrich their population.

To compliment this organisation is a wonderful Secretariat led by a highly experienced, dynamic individual who I have known for over 15 years. They are looking for a strong number 2 to help them steer the ship. The role will be to navigate the various boards and committees and deliver a first-class service to them. As a senior member of this excellent team, you will be ready to step in when the Company Secretary is away or being asked to work on urgent matters with the CEO or Chair.

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.
