🚨 Sous Chef / Senior Sous Chef | £50,000–£55,000 | Central London

Be part of the next chapter of a former multiple Michelin-starred restaurant.

I'm working on an exciting opportunity with a restaurant that's relaunching with a fresh Modern European concept. This is a rare chance to join the opening team and help shape one of London's most anticipated new openings from day one.

Working alongside an experienced leadership team, you'll play a key role in building the kitchen culture, maintaining exceptional standards, and delivering refined, seasonal food.

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.
