About the Role

Most junior PA roles keep you at arm's length from the real work.

Booking meeting rooms and ordering lunch platters for people who barely know your name.

This role is the opposite.

A fast-growing Private Equity firm, run by one of the titans of the PE industry, is expanding its team. They are young, fast, and growing rapidly.

They are recruiting a Team Assistant / Junior PA who wants to learn and help in equal measure.

In most finance houses, junior support is siloed. Here, you get direct exposure to top-tier PE dealmakers and operators every single day. As career springboards go, it is one of the most compelling on the market.

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.

  • Anyone who thinks administrative support is beneath them.
  • Anyone who needs hand-holding or expects to be spoon-fed every task.

The pace is relentless, and the standards are high. The trade-off is unrivaled mentorship and exposure.
