Level 2 Customer Service Practitioner Apprentice

The UK Centre for Carnival Arts (UKCCA) is a vibrant and dynamic organisation dedicated to promoting and celebrating carnival arts. You will join the UKCCA Team as a Level 2 Customer Service Practitioner Apprentice, principally supporting the Executive Producer and Learning and Participation Project Manager.

  • Event and workshop administration: supporting bookings, attendance lists, registration, participant communications and follow-up information for UKCCA activities.
  • Participant and community support: helping learners, families, community groups and artists access information about programmes, workshops and events.
  • Venue hire and room booking support: assisting with room enquiries, availability checks, booking records and customer communications.
  • Ticketing or event registration support: helping customers book places, confirm attendance and receive event information.
  • CRM/database and record keeping: maintaining accurate customer, participant, partner and booking records in line with data protection requirements.

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.
