  • Manage and monitor governance projects, ensuring milestones and actions are delivered effectively.
  • Coordinate processes such as Internal Dispute Resolution Procedure (IDRP) cases and data breach management.
  • Work closely with pension advisers, administrators, suppliers, and internal teams to ensure effective service delivery.
  • Support Trustee communications, regulatory disclosures, and continuous improvement initiatives across pension governance processes.

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.
