About The Role
We are inviting applications for the post of Education Centre Administrator (Finance & Operations).
You will work within an established professional services education team in the School of Medicine. The main purpose of the role is to provide administrative support for financial and governance related areas of the School of Medicine Education Centre activities.
You will work in a team with minimum day to day supervision, to provide a range of services to agreed quality standards. You will require a thorough understanding of relevant systems/processes of the working environment, gained through vocational qualification with work experience, or relevant work experience over some years. You will organise your own day-to-day work to meet clear objectives. You will typically have specific responsibility for a clearly defined section or sub-section of work and will be expected to deal with less routine queries/issues/requests, referring conflicts or more complex situations to the relevant person. Independence and initiative will be required to react to changing priorities and work circumstances, with scope to make decisions within clear parameters.
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.
