We’re recruiting for a Nursery Manager to join a lovely, well-established family-run nursery in West Leeds.
The current manager is leaving after more than 10 years, so this is a rare opportunity to join a settled setting with a real family feel.
You’ll take responsibility for the day-to-day running of the nursery, leading the team, maintaining high standards of care and supporting strong relationships with children and families.
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.
