Operating across 30 countries, this market-leading organisation is a major force in sustainability and recycling. As the largest supplier to the NHS and trusted by household names including Tesco and Sainsbury’s, the business is entering an exciting new phase of UK expansion — and you could be part of it!
We’re looking for bright, vibrant, engaging and determined graduates with the ambition to follow in the footsteps of rising stars such as Jenna Meek and Susie Ma.
If you’re ambitious, confident and ready to make your mark, this is an opportunity to build a successful, rewarding career with a global industry leader. You’ll be joining an environment where talented graduates can develop confidence, build commercial skills and progress rapidly into leadership and senior roles.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
- Top-Tier Training: Industry-leading graduate programme within a company boasting 86% employee satisfaction.
- Proven Career Progression: Four graduates have already been promoted into management positions, showing the genuine opportunity to progress and build a long-term career.
- Real Responsibility: Build your own territory, develop relationships and take ownership of your success.
- Big Impact: Join a global company making waves in sustainability and innovation.
- A Career Without Limits: Your progression is driven by your ambition, performance and ability to make an impact.
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.
