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.

The Role


Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
You'll own the full lifecycle of data science engagements, from shaping ambiguous problems through to deploying production-grade models that embed into real operational workflows.
This isn't a research or experimentation role - it's delivery-focused, commercially grounded, and built for someone who thrives at the intersection of rigorous data science and client impact. You'll work across organisations at every stage of data maturity, set the technical standard internally, and develop the next generation of data scientists within the team.
The Candidate
Key attributes of a suitable Managing Consultant (Data Science) include:
- Deep Applied Data Science Expertise - you bring 5+ years of hands-on experience delivering end-to-end machine learning and statistical solutions in production environments.
- Commercial Problem Solver - you're confident translating ambiguous business challenges into hypothesis-driven data science solutions, and equally comfortable presenting findings and influencing decision-making at the senior client level.
- Technical Leader - you set the bar for code quality, reproducibility, and best practices, and take pride in mentoring and developing others. You understand that the measure of success is client outcomes, not model sophistication.
- Awareness of Generative AI - some exposure to LLMs, RAG pipelines, or agentic workflows is a plus, though strong data science fundamentals will always take priority.
