  • Estimate resources and timelines for experiments, ensuring delivery against targets.
  • Author technical documentation including validation protocols, reports and laboratory records.
  • Independently analyse and interpret data, including statistical evaluation.
  • Present laboratory findings through clear internal presentations.
  • Ensure accurate documentation and data integrity in line with GMP, GLP and GDP.
  • Conduct laboratory investigations, perform root cause analysis, and apply CAPA as needed.
  • Support updates to laboratory methods, SOPs and processes.
  • Maintain compliance with cGMP regulations, SOPs and technical documentation.
  • Contribute to change control activities.
  • Support daily laboratory operations such as housekeeping, equipment checks, calibration, preparing solutions, stock management, sample shipping and documentation scanning.

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.
