What You’ll Be Doing

The role of Midday Assistant involves working closely with children over lunchtime. The position will involve supervising pupils over lunchtime (hours will be 11.45am to 1.45pm), helping to ensure that they eat a balanced diet, encourage good social skills and lead post-lunch play activities.

This role is offered on a zero-hours contract.

The successful candidate will have the flexibility to accept assignments as they arise, with hours offered over lunchtime (11.30am to 1.30pm).

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.
