Who We Are & Why This Role Exists
We are an Executive Search firm operating at the sharpest end of quant, finance and technology recruitment.
Five years ago, we entered one of the most competitive markets in the world with no brand, no inherited clients and no right to win.
Today, we consistently outperform firms with decades of heritage.
The numbers:
- $400k-500k+ average production per head
- $100k-700k fee mandates
- Multiple seven-figure billers
We didn’t win by luck. We won by building a platform that compounds performance: combining process, pressure and execution. Now, we’re scaling that platform further and giving you the chance to join.
From day one, you’ll have access to:
- Elite hedge fund and quant tech clients with live search mandates
- A warm desk with active accounts and established candidate networks
- Six-figure fee mandates
- Mentorship from multi six figure and seven figure billers
- A search environment built for depth and precision, not volume
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.
