This is a fantastic opportunity to work closely with senior stakeholders in a fast-paced, high-performing environment, partnering across the business to shape and deliver the people agenda. This role would suit an HR Business Partner with a background in financial services, ideally Private Equity, Asset Management, Investment Banking, or a related sector, who is comfortable operating at pace, managing complexity, and building trusted relationships with senior leaders.
The Role
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.
