The Role

  • Working to identify opportunities within groups for stronger workforce planning, succession management, organizational design, and leadership development, and partnering with People COE’s on execution.
  • Developing analytics and corresponding business metrics/reporting in the areas of People initiatives (e.g. turnover, representation, engagement, succession depth, and talent pipelines), and provide insights to influence business decisions.
  • Work creatively to support employee relations concerns, in partnership with COE’s and legal, ensuring fairness, compliance, and alignment with company policies and values.

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.
