About the Company
We’re working with a well-established independent small animal practice in East Devon, with practices across the Sidmouth and Colyton area, who are looking to welcome an experienced Veterinary Surgeon to their team.
About the Role
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a friendly, close-knit veterinary team where you’ll have the time and support to provide an excellent standard of care. The practice is RCVS accredited and offers modern facilities, including digital X-ray, ultrasound, in-house laboratory equipment and dedicated surgical facilities.
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.
