Key Responsibilities:

  • Customer Collaboration: Act as a point of contact for customer NPD teams, fostering strong relationships.
  • Recipe Development: Design and develop recipes from customer briefs, including analysing and recreating existing products to meet specifications.
  • Taste Assessment: Ensure recipes meet taste standards required, as ingredients and final application.

  • Pricing & Compliance: Collaborate with account managers to ensure commercial and technical needs are met.

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.
