Your Role

We have an exciting opportunity for a talented Stock Controller to join our team based in Glasgow. Our Stores team is responsible for the receipt of incoming goods, ensuring materials received are in good condition, fit for use and are logged into our LIMS or Oracle system. As our Material Handler, you will work closely with Quality Control, Purchasing & end users to make materials available in accordance with GxP and help resolve any issues relating to raw materials. You will be supported by your Materials Supervisor to meet out internal customer needs on a high throughput site. You’ll own practical tasks like identifying slow-moving stock, tackling waste by preventing expiry, and running smart stock counts that keep our supply chain agile.

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.
