Vision Independent Financial Planning is a true adviser centric network.
We know that IFAs are as individual as your clients and so provide you with the freedom and flexibility to run your business as you see fit, with the comfort and security that we provide in terms of regulatory support, protection, and business development support.
As a truly independent network, we operate a genuine whole of market approach, and our scale has allowed us to negotiate preferential terms with a number of DFM and MPS providers. Wholly owned by Rathbones, our financial security means we are able to offer both competitive fee sharing arrangements and commercial lending terms.
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.
