The role

In this role, you'll help drive a licence project relating to communications infrastructure on Crown land.

  • Strong stakeholder engagement and relationship management skills, with the confidence to work with government agencies, customers, industry groups and other stakeholders.
  • Well-developed written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to prepare clear advice, briefings and recommendations.
  • A customer-focused mindset with a commitment to delivering responsive, high-quality services and outcomes.
  • Sound project management skills, including coordinating deliverables, monitoring progress and supporting successful project outcomes.
  • Experience working within policy, legislative or governance frameworks, or the ability to quickly interpret and apply complex requirements.
  • Strong organisational skills, personal accountability and the ability to work independently while contributing to team objectives.
  • Experience in telecommunications is not essential; however, candidates with strong project coordination, administration and stakeholder management experience will be well suited to the role.

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.
