About The Role

- Typical working hours for this full-time role cover 35 hours per week, 5 days over 7 including evenings and weekends.
- During our Big Weekender breaks, you may be working in our Bars department, therefore flexibility and reliability are essential, as we operate seven days a week.
- Just think of the additional skills and new friends you may make!
- Live-in accommodation may be available for those who are relocating to the area for this full-time position.
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.
