Company Description

Gem-A is the world’s longest-established provider of Gemmology education, with roots dating back to 1908. Its globally recognised qualifications in Gemmology and Diamonds are taught internationally and are regarded as qualifications of the highest status.

We support an international community of gem professionals and enthusiasts, serving the interests of the gem and jewellery industries. In addition to education, we offer membership opportunities, a specialist shop for gemmological instruments, and publishes two international journals: Gems & Jewellery and The Journal of Gemmology.

Role Description

As our Education Development Manager, you will play a pivotal role in identifying and implementing new business opportunities through Accredited Study Centres (ATCs) and other partnerships both in the UK and across international markets, as well as managing the existing Accredited Training Centre (ATC) and Gem-A Accredited Practical Provider (GAPP) network, in order to achieve agreed revenue and student growth targets.

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.
