The Centre for Science and Policy (CSaP) is looking for a talented and motivated individual to join our team as a Policy Engagement Coordinator, helping to connect the world's leading researchers with senior policy professionals across the UK.

Since our founding in 2009, CSaP has become a world-leading pioneer in bringing together academia and government, building relationships rooted in mutual trust to address the UK's most pressing public policy challenges. At the heart of this work are our Policy Workshops, and you will be instrumental in making them happen.

  • Coordinate and deliver high-quality engagement events
  • Work closely with academic researchers and policy fellows
  • Produce insightful reports
  • Continuously look for smarter, more efficient ways to do things

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.
