- Build and maintain a high-quality pipeline of large corporate opportunities, targeting key sectors and senior decision-makers.
- Act as a trusted decarbonisation advisor, helping customers navigate Net Zero, ESG and Scope 2 emissions strategies.
- Lead complex commercial negotiations from initial engagement through to contract execution.
- Structure innovative deals that meet customer sustainability objectives while delivering strong commercial value for ENGIE.

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.
