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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
This post is offered to cover a period of maternity leave and there is an expectation to be in the office at least 2 days per week.

You will be confident in all aspects of meeting management, including scheduling meetings, preparing rooms and documentation, taking accurate minutes and clearly identifying action points. You will also have strong diary management skills and the ability to adapt quickly to changing priorities.
The role involves the regular use of digital tools, so confidence using Microsoft 365 applications would be an advantage.
