We work with some of the most innovative and disruptive businesses across the globe, providing consultancy and staffing solutions that deliver tangible results for our clients. With strengths in AI, IT infrastructure, project management and data analytics, we pride ourselves on finding the right solution to our client’s human resource needs.

Key Responsibilities

As a Junior Talent Acquisition Specialist you will be responsible for working closely with our Account Management team to build a strong understanding of our client’s needs and turn this into a viable candidate search strategy. Utilising both internal (ATS) and external search tools (job boards, LinkedIn) you will identify, attract and validate potential FDM consultants before passing to Account Managers to build into our bespoke client solutions.

Main duties:

  • Search, selection and validation of candidates for FDMs consultant work streams across sectors such as Finance, Public Sector, IT, Defence and FMCG.
  • Utilise FDM’s applicant tracking system (ATS) to control and progress open vacancies and to ensure accurate reporting.
  • Work closely with Account Managers, advising them on their open roles and current status.
  • Adhere to hiring process and data protection to ensure good record keeping and compliance.

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.
