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.

The Opportunity
You'll join an established Manchester team within a recognised Financial and Professional Services recruitment business.
There are existing clients, live vacancies, and relationships to build upon but plenty of scope to strengthen the firm's regional Finance presence.
You'll have the freedom to develop the desk around your own experience and relationships, supported by an existing junior consultant whose focus you can help shape.
This isn't a fully developed desk producing substantial billings without effort. It will involve winning business, re-engaging clients, and developing the market. However, you'll have an established platform and resources behind you.
Who Would Suit This?
You'll already have a strong background in Finance and Accountancy recruitment, ideally across Manchester and the wider North West.
You'll have a credible billing record, established client relationships, and the ability to win and deliver business independently.
