What you'll do:
We're looking for an organised and curious individual who enjoys working with data, solving problems and bringing information together from a wide range of sources.
- You'll be confident asking questions, building relationships with colleagues and suppliers, and proactively follow up to stay on track.
- This reporting relies on input from people across the business, many of whom have other day-to-day priorities, so you'll need the confidence and resilience to keep things moving while maintaining positive working relationships.
- Strong written communication is essential.
- You'll help us complete customer questionnaires, sustainability assessments and reports, ensuring responses are clear, accurate and genuinely reflect what we're doing as a business.
You don't need to be a sustainability expert. We're looking for someone who is analytical, proactive, and keen to learn, who can present information in a clear and engaging way.
You'll be responsible for:
- Producing regular reports and updates for internal and external stakeholders.
- Supporting customer and supplier requests for sustainability information.
- Building strong working relationships across the business to understand activities and measurement.
- Following up and coordinating information requests to ensure deadlines are met.
- Checking data is accurate, complete and reliable.
- Creating simple processes that make data collection easier and more efficient.
- Producing reports, dashboards and presentations that bring data to life.
- Writing clear and compelling responses for sustainability assessments, customer questionnaires and reporting requirements.
- Working with colleagues across the business to improve the quality of our data and reporting.
- Identifying trends, opportunities and areas for improvement.
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.
