About The Service - Criminal Justice 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.

Changing Lives delivers a range of projects that support women involved in the Criminal Justice System. We believe that individuals become involved in the Criminal Justice System for a complex range of reasons.
Our experience has taught us that to help women stop offending and to rebuild their lives, we must address the underlying causes of crime. Our services are underpinned by an in-depth understanding of trauma and we support women to address challenges such as domestic abuse, homelessness or poor housing, helping women to develop tools to ensure that trauma in their past does not define the rest of their lives. We know that with the right support around them, women so often are able to break the cycle of crisis and crime.
We currently deliver diversion from custody schemes, education, training and employment services, and holistic services to women serving community sentences or following release from custody. We also provide some pre-release services and have a presence across a number of women’s prisons nationally. Our criminal justice services cover Northumbria, Cleveland, South Yorkshire, West Midlands, East Midlands, Warwickshire, Staffordshire and Leicestershire.

About The Job
At Changing Lives, we know from years of working alongside women across Northumbria that an offence is rarely the whole story. Many of the women we support have experienced trauma, abuse, homelessness, poor mental health or substance use, often with needs that have gone unmet for years.
The Intensive Supervision Court is an opportunity to combine clear accountability with specialist, trauma-informed support that addresses the issues contributing to offending. We are proud to bring our long-standing experience of supporting women in the criminal justice system to this partnership, working alongside women and our partners to create lasting change, reduce reoffending and build safer communities.
This is an exciting opportunity to make a difference, if you are passionate about supporting women and have a dynamic approach to problem solving then we want to hear from you!
