Referment is working with a growing technology company that provides software to organisations across the charity, social-impact and public sectors.

They're looking for an Operations Associate to take ownership of a broad range of internal operations as the business continues to scale.

This is a varied, hands-on role spanning recruitment, finance administration, contracts, security compliance and process automation. You'll be given genuine ownership from the outset, with the opportunity to take on increasingly important areas of the business as you develop.

The Role

You'll Be Responsible For

  • Managing recruitment operations, including candidate pipelines, interview scheduling, CV screening and assessment coordination.
  • Owning administrative processes around contracts, signatures and documentation.
  • Raising and tracking invoices and ensuring payments are followed up.
  • Supporting ongoing information-security and compliance processes.
  • Managing recurring reviews, evidence and documentation associated with security certifications.
  • Coordinating responses to customer security questionnaires.
  • Building reusable processes and documentation to make recurring work more efficient.
  • Identifying repetitive manual tasks and replacing them with templates, automation and AI workflows.
  • Working closely with the Chief of Staff and wider team across a range of operational projects.
  • Taking ownership of new areas of the business as the company grows.

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.

Previous experience with recruitment operations, contracts, invoicing, procurement or finance administration would be useful.

Exposure to ISO 27001, SOC 2, Cyber Essentials or information-security processes would be beneficial but isn't essential.

The role would suit someone who has become the reliable operational centre of a small business or team and now wants significantly more ownership and progression within a growing technology company.
