Do you enjoy improving services, solving problems, and making the most of technology? We're looking for two motivated Technical & Support Officers to join our busy Technical & Support Team.

In this varied role, you'll support critical Revenues, Benefits, and Financial Services systems, drive service improvements, deliver training, analyse performance data, support business change projects, and provide expert technical support across Transactional and Customer Services.

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.
