Emotional Wellbeing Assistant
We are looking for an Emotional Wellbeing Assistant to work alongside and assist our Emotional Wellbeing team, based at our Hereford site.
About National Star
At National Star we recognise that there are a range of issues outside of education that can have an impact on a learner’s life. National Star’s Emotional Wellbeing Service promotes good mental health and Positive Behaviour Support (PBS), to enable our learners in getting the most from their social, educational, and life skills programmes.
The Role
We are looking for someone with experience of delivering high quality behaviour support to students or young adults with complex physical and learning disabilities and can assist with the emotional wellbeing needs of National Star students in a holistic and systematic way.
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.
