About the Role
We’re an ambitious, growing residential developer entering an exciting new phase of growth and transformation. We are investing in the structures, governance, and processes needed to scale sustainably and professionally. This is a rare opportunity to join at the heart of that journey, working directly alongside the senior leadership team at a pivotal moment for the company.
This is a newly created position designed for an ambitious and capable graduate who wants to play a meaningful role in shaping how a growing business operates. You will provide hands-on support to the C-suite in stabilising the business, strengthening corporate governance and building the frameworks and processes that will underpin sustainable growth.
You will be responsible for the preparation, coordination, and management of board and committee papers, helping to ensure that decision-making across the business is well-informed, properly documented, and efficiently tracked. You will take ownership of document management processes, bringing order and coherence to the way the business creates, stores, and retrieves key corporate records and approvals.
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.
