Job Description
Packing Operative - Great Opportunity!
Kinetic Recruitment are currently looking for Packing Operatives to join a busy and well-established team. This is a great opportunity for someone who is reliable, hardworking, and takes pride in doing a good job. Full training will be provided, but previous experience in a packing, production, or warehouse environment would be an advantage.
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.
