About the Role
Start as a Senior Marine Cargo Broker and end up becoming the Head of Marine Cargo of a majorly popular Marine Broking house in London. That's if you are wanting the career progression.
This one will turn heads in the marine market… as it is a subject matter expert placement role, rather that strictly production.
IDEX are working on a role with one of the most requested broking houses we hear about when speaking to Marine Cargo professionals. The kind of firm people consistently say:
“If they were hiring, I’d want to know.”
Well… now is that time. Joining a Lloyd's Broker built of exceptional marine insurance professionals and genuinely great people.
This is an opportunity to step in as the Marine Cargo subject matter expert within an already high-performing Hull, P&I & Liability broking team that’s seeing a real surge in cargo enquiries.
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.
