Are you looking to launch your career in events and gain hands-on experience delivering meetings and events across the UK and internationally? At C2events, we're seeking an Event Executive to join our growing team in Wakefield. This is an ideal opportunity for someone with early career experience in events, hospitality, agency, or project support who is eager to learn and develop within a fast-paced, global events environment.

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.
