We are currently working with a highly respected, fully independent, chartered financial planning practice in Cardiff, who are looking to appoint an experienced Paraplanner to join their close-knit team.

This is a unique opportunity to work directly alongside the Managing Director, providing dedicated 1-to-1 support in a hands-on and varied role. You will play a key part in the day-to-day running of client relationships, acting as a main point of contact and ensuring the delivery of a high-quality, personalised service.

The role will suit a proactive and detail-oriented Paraplanner who enjoys working closely with an adviser and being fully involved in the client journey. Importantly, you will be supported by a dedicated administrative team, allowing you to focus on technical work and adviser support rather than being drawn into day-to-day admin tasks.

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.
