Junior Systems Administrator – the opportunity

We are delighted to be able to offer this brand new, entry-level IT Support and Systems Administration role with a long-time, regular customer of ours.

The company is a Telecoms pioneer that has carved out a highly successful niche over more than 20 years and sits at the centre of a very important part of the industry.

Owing to the promotion of the last Junior Systems Admin (who we also placed), our client is looking for someone with a passion for technology, with a suitable degree or equivalent, who wants to embark on their IT career and ultimately build a broad technical skillset in support of leading-edge internet-based Telecoms products.

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.
