Alexander Steele are delighted to be working with an exciting new hospitality venue opening in Edinburgh City Centre. This premium 70/30 bar and restaurant concept is looking for a hands-on Venue General Manager to lead the launch and build a standout destination.

This is a business built around one simple motto: run it like you own it. You'll have genuine autonomy to shape the venue, drive profitability, develop your team, and create an exceptional guest experience from day one.

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.
