MORE THAN AN OFFICE JOB!

Looking for a role where every day is different?

Want to be part of a growing manufacturing business where you can learn, develop and build a long-term career?

At Woodlands Home & Garden Group, we are looking for an Operations Assistant to join our busy Operations team.

This is not a role where you will spend all day behind a desk. You will be at the heart of our manufacturing operation, working alongside Production, Planning, Logistics and Supply Chain teams to help keep everything running smoothly.

If you enjoy being organised, solving problems and working with people, this could be the perfect opportunity.

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.
