Equality, Diversity and Inclusion
We are committed to equality, diversity and inclusion, creating a community where colleagues feel respected and valued. We aim to reflect the diversity of our students and communities, and to strengthen our university through collaboration and diverse perspectives, across all roles at the University.

About the Role
The UK Student Recruitment Service is responsible for the recruitment of all students from the UK to our Hull-based campus, including all levels of study and portfolio areas. The Service is organised into three teams: Schools and Colleges Liaison, Events and Applicant Experience, and Access and the Humber Outreach Programme. The UK Student Recruitment Service aims to attract a diverse pool of high-quality students to apply; widen access and participation; maximise conversion opportunities through face-to-face and online engagement; and – ultimately, grow enrolments according to strategic priorities and institutional targets.

The Events and Applicant Experience team is responsible for the delivery of all on campus student recruitment events; the University of Hull presence at all UK-based off campus student recruitment events; the conversion of final year undergraduate students to PG study; and for providing a high quality face-to-face applicant experience whether this is on campus or online.

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.
