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.

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 is not a traditional Legal PA role. It is a senior, commercially focused Executive Assistant position involving clients, transactions, business development and senior stakeholder management.

We are particularly interested in experienced PA candidates with experience gained within:

  • Corporate Law
  • Banking or Corporate Finance
  • Private Equity
  • Transactional or deal-led financial services

You will manage complex priorities, act as an effective gatekeeper, coordinate senior-level meetings and ensure important deadlines and commitments are followed through.

The right person will be proactive, commercially aware, and exceptionally organised. You will anticipate what is needed, exercise sound judgement, and remain composed when priorities change quickly.

This is an excellent opportunity for a strong Corporate Legal PA ready to step into a broader Executive Assistant role, or an experienced EA from a banking, finance, or transactional environment.
