Ascendo partners with the world's leading technology VCs and hyper-scaling software companies to build their Go-To-Market teams that take them to the next level. We've grown 400% in two years and as we scale, we need someone to keep the engine running.

We're looking for an Office Manager who'll be the heartbeat of a fast-moving, high-performance team, the person who keeps everything sharp, everyone looked after, and the energy high.

  • Leading the day-to-day running of the office, creating an organised, efficient and welcoming workplace
  • Supporting the full employee lifecycle, including onboarding, offboarding, HR administration, maintaining employee records and coordinating training
  • Acting as the first point of contact for HR queries while supporting managers with people processes and ensuring HR compliance
  • Supporting finance activities, including processing invoices, managing expenses, reconciling company cards, assisting with payroll and liaising with external accountants
  • Managing office budgets, supplier relationships and purchasing to ensure the business operates efficiently and cost-effectively
  • Coordinating company facilities, equipment, IT support, office supplies and health & safety requirements
  • Organising team meetings, company events and initiatives that help create a positive and engaging workplace culture
  • Reviewing, improving and implementing processes, policies and systems that support business growth and operational excellence
  • Providing administrative support to the leadership team, helping priorities stay on track and projects move forward
  • Building trusted relationships across the business and becoming the go-to person who keeps everything running behind the scenes

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.
