  • Analyse complex business challenges, develop practical recommendations and help clients implement solutions that drive value and support strategic objectives.
  • Build strong relationships with partners, directors and client teams while contributing to business development and identifying opportunities to support clients further.
  • Coach and support junior team members, sharing knowledge and helping to deliver high-quality outcomes within agile, collaborative project teams.

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.
