  • Drive growth across defence and security markets in EMEA.
  • Build strategic relationships with defence ministries, prime contractors, and system integrators.
  • Own the full sales cycle, from opportunity identification through contract award.
  • Set regional sales strategy and expand our partner network.
  • Represent Sentinel Photonics at key industry events and exhibitions.

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.
