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.
We're a small, passionate team with a committed supporter base across Devon and beyond, and we're now looking to grow.
About the role
This is a brand-new role for Amigos, with a strong focus on community fundraising through individuals. You'll build and deepen relationships with our existing supporters, and design a re-engagement strategy to reconnect with those who've lapsed, keeping people connected to our work in Uganda through personal updates, field stories and social media. You'll also plan and deliver a calendar of events: some to invite supporters to, and others where people take on a sponsored challenge, such as a walk, run or trek, to fundraise for Amigos. There's scope to grow a signature event over time, and real autonomy to shape all of this alongside our CEO.
