About the Role

Phoenix is a leading mid-market private equity investor, partnering with founder-entrepreneurs and their teams across the UK & Ireland. We are looking for a bright and driven individual, with prior strategy consulting experience, to join our origination & strategy team.

More on Phoenix

We focus on supporting founder-entrepreneurs, their teams, and their cultures. We share their vision and commitment to growing bigger, better businesses, helping to create a legacy that lasts.

We are very thoughtful about the long-term trends that underpin the businesses that we invest in. When a business is aligned with one of these trends, we move quickly and with conviction.

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.
