Do you have a passion for delivery?
We are looking for someone with high energy and positivity to deliver on embedding our values-based culture and taking our L&D offering to the next level.
If you’re passionate about helping leaders grow, enjoy creating engaging learning experiences, and are curious about strengths-based approaches, we’d love to hear from you. Experience with leadership development programmes or Crucial Conversations would be a real bonus, but we’re just as interested in your energy, facilitation style and ability to bring learning to life.

- Experience using tools such as 360 feedback and psychometrics
- High levels of energy and teamwork
- A proactive approach to solving problems
This role sits with the People team in the Learning, Talent, and Strategic Partnering function.
The team is responsible for learning and development, apprenticeships, and strategic people partnering across the business.
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.
