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.

Lifestyle

Unlike many consulting firms, you'll largely be working from our offices rather than out on client sites. This gives you greater control over planning your life outside of work and reduces the time you spend travelling (as well as your carbon footprint). It also lets you fully immerse yourself in our supportive team culture and get involved in our many social activities and clubs. You will still get to travel, often internationally, for client meetings and events – the best of both worlds!

Growth

Plural Strategy is a dynamic and growing consultancy, and we're looking for talented and motivated Analysts who want to flourish with us. Many of our senior team started their careers at Plural and have been supported to progress rapidly through the business. Could you be next?

The Analyst Role:

You will be a core part of the project team and have a central role in fulfilling client engagements across a range of project types and industries.

As an Analyst you will start by assisting more experienced consultants, but as you develop you will take ownership of your own workstreams.

You will own key pieces of analyses, execute research programs, and write sections of reports.

As you grow within Plural Strategy, you may have responsibility for interns and leading smaller workstreams.

You can also get involved in contributing to our Plural Team, whether it is helping with recruitment, social impact projects or joining our social committee.
