The Role
We're looking for a Talent Lead to take full ownership of how we attract, hire, and retain exceptional talent. Joining a lean, fast moving team, you'll have complete scope to shape our recruitment strategy while partnering on broader People operations.
You won't just be filling roles - you'll be shaping the talent infrastructure, driving strategic People initiatives, and acting as the direct talent partner to company leadership.
This is a full-time hybrid role, with at least 3 days a week in our London office.
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.
