Join a Team That Builds Innovative SaaS Solutions
Are you a QA Software Tester looking for a role where your work has a real impact?
I'm looking for a detail-oriented QA Software Tester to join a growing team, helping to ensure the quality, performance and reliability of my clients software products.
My clients solutions are designed for the flexible workspace industry and include an established networking platform that combines CRM, billing and floor space management into one powerful solution.

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.
