Description
Cover Receptionist
Edinburgh
Salary: 14.24 Per Hour (including Holiday)
Are you looking for a role where you work occasionally and could fit around study/family/own business. One which gives you the flexibility to work as and when you choose? We have an opportunity for temporary cover receptionists to provide exceptional customer service, on an ad hoc basis.
You will be an experienced receptionist, or customer service professional, who understands the importance of delivering a warm welcome to everyone. You will be immaculately presented, organised and reliable.
You will be flexible and confident to ‘step in’ to provide reception cover, for holiday, sickness absence or even longer periods of temporary support.
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.
