Axiom Veterinary Laboratory (part of the CVS Group) is a busy diagnostic facility committed to providing top-quality clinical testing services to a large client base of veterinary practices across the country and abroad.
You play your part, helping diagnose and treat animals, improving quality of life. You do this by efficiently managing deliveries of samples, booking them into our in-house systems for allocation for our technicians.
By doing this you are actively helping us diagnose issues which will help us offer same day advice to vets to manage the care of pets around the UK. Your speed, and accuracy may directly allow vets to save the lives of their patients.
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.

- Comfortable with learning new tools: we are always looking to improve our systems. Learning new processes is important.
