Are you a Level 3 qualified Early Years Practitioner looking to take the next step in a well-structured and supportive nursery setting?
A high-performing Trust is opening new nursery provisions in Bexley this September, as part of a major national investment into early years education.

This is a full-time, permanent role, offering stability and the opportunity to contribute to a high-quality early years provision from day one.

- Deliver high-quality care and early education in line with EYFS
- Support the planning and delivery of engaging, age-appropriate activities
- Act as a key person, tracking and supporting children’s development
- Maintain a safe, structured, and stimulating environment
- Promote children’s language, communication, and social development
- Ensure safeguarding procedures are followed at all times
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.
