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.

International compensation experience would be highly advantageous, particularly exposure to the UK, Europe and/or US. Experience within technology, fintech, digital assets or another fast-growth organisation would also be beneficial. Some exposure to employee benefits would be useful, although this is very much a compensation-led role rather than a benefits specialist position.
The opportunity
The organisation employs colleagues across more than 40 countries and operates a remote-first working model, making this a genuinely international compensation assignment. The successful candidate can be based in the UK/Europe or US and should ideally be available to start around mid-September, allowing sufficient time for a structured handover.
The initial assignment is expected to run for approximately five to six months.
All applications and conversations will be treated in strict confidence.
