We are working with an established equities-focused hedge fund, with a strong track record of performance, who are looking to hire into a newly created junior operations role - due to strong growth.
The successful candidate will join a lean team responsible for the firm’s full post-trade operations function. There will also be scope to get involved in automation, process improvement and wider efficiency projects, so coding skills would be beneficial.
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.
