About the Role

Customers are at the heart of everything we do. Working on our Team Member role means variety, teamwork, and plenty of daily challenges. You’ll meet great people, learn new skills, and enjoy an inclusive team dynamic.

  • Deliver friendly, natural customer service – Welcome customers with genuine enthusiasm
  • Be a product liaison – Stay confident in our products and services, offering proactive assistance when needed
  • Provide flexible support across multiple store operations:
    • Replenishment tasks (shelving, stock management)
    • Checkout service
    • Handling online orders (picking)
    • Occasional delivery assistance
    • General store maintenance and replenishment
  • Make customer-focused decisions – Execute key tasks efficiently while maintaining great service standards
  • Drive performance – Help the store achieve strong sales, reduce waste, and promote operational excellence

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.
