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.

Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Experience with Civica Automation Suite / PCC, or similar financial automation and integration technologies, would be particularly useful.
Exposure to systems such as Capita AIMS, payment portals, Gov.Pay or Pay360 would also be advantageous.
Some knowledge of APIs, web services, JavaScript, HTML, CSS or SharePoint would be beneficial but is not the primary focus of the position.
The person
This is not a management role. We're looking for an experienced technical specialist who is comfortable taking ownership of critical systems and solving complex problems independently.
You should be able to combine technical ability with an understanding of how financial transactions flow between systems and appreciate the operational importance of ensuring payments, interfaces and scheduled processes run correctly.
The position may occasionally require out-of-hours work to support critical incidents or system implementations, with overtime/TOIL provisions available.
