We are recruiting two temporary Relationship Managers (Local Authority Engagement) to join the Food Standards Agency's Local Authority Engagement Team within the Regulatory Compliance Division. These roles offer an exciting opportunity to work at the heart of food and feed regulation, building strong relationships with local authorities and helping to shape the future delivery of official controls across England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
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.
