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.

About You
We are looking for an enthusiastic and highly organised coordinator who enjoys variety and takes pride in keeping people, information and activities running smoothly. You may come from an administration, coordination, customer service or business support background, and you will be confident managing several priorities while maintaining strong attention to detail.
You will have excellent communication and customer service skills, with the confidence to act as a first point of contact for customer enquiries, liaise with colleagues across the business and follow actions through to completion. You will be comfortable working independently as well as collaboratively and will bring a positive, proactive approach to supporting a new and developing service.
Strong Microsoft Office skills are essential, particularly across Excel, Word, Outlook, Teams and PowerPoint, alongside experience of maintaining accurate records and managing data. Experience using CRM, scheduling, workforce management or database systems would be advantageous, as would experience producing reports or supporting field-based and customer-facing teams.
