Paraplanner
Boutique IFA - Kettering (Hybrid)
Up to £47,500
Are you a technically capable Paraplanner looking to join a firm where holistic financial planning, client relationships and quality advice take precedence?
We're partnering with a highly respected boutique Independent Financial Planning firm in Northamptonshire, known for its lifestyle-led approach to advice and collaborative culture. Working closely with experienced Financial Planners, you'll provide technical support across a broad range of pensions, investments, protection and estate planning cases, helping to deliver bespoke financial planning solutions for private clients.
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.
