Client Details
I'm supporting a large and complex organisation through a period of significant transformation to recruit an experienced Interim Head of Cultural Change & Engagement.
This is a high-profile role where you'll lead the organisation's culture and engagement agenda, developing and delivering change and communication strategies that support large-scale transformation programmes. Working closely with senior leaders, you'll drive employee engagement, embed cultural change and ensure colleagues remain connected, informed and aligned throughout a period of growth and change.
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.
