U-Drive are looking for a friendly and ‘can-do' driver/valeter who thrives in a customer-focused environment for our Exeter branch! If you have a full UK driving license who can confidently operate a range of vehicles we'd love to hear from you.

About The Role

As a Driver/Valeter at U-Drive, you'll play a crucial role in the efficient operation of our Exeter branch, working a 45-hour week on a Monday to Saturday rolling rota. This position involves driving responsibilities alongside vehicle valeting tasks to ensure our rental vehicles are well-maintained and customer ready. Whether delivering vehicles to branches or directly to customers, your attention to detail and commitment to customer service are paramount.

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.
