Hybrid working - 3 days in office / 2 days WFH

About the Company
We’re looking for a Senior Research & Delivery Consultant to join a market-leading Private Equity Executive Search firm, specialising in C-level appointments into PE-backed portfolio companies.
About the Role
You’ll work on C-Level and Chair mandates for high-growth, investor-backed businesses, often at moments of inflection: carve-outs, buy-and-builds, turnarounds and exits.
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.
