Join us as an Accelerator Journey Manager

Lead a welcoming, vibrant hub that allows entrepreneurs feel supported and connected, shaping experiences that bring the Accelerator brand to life both in-person and through our digital journey.

Bring the positive energy and entrepreneurial spirit that sparks founders’ ambition, encourages stakeholders to lean in, and drives your colleagues to champion growth alongside you.

You’ll be part of a progressive team where you can build influence, expand your network across the bank and startup ecosystem, and set yourself up for great opportunities in innovation and strategy.

This is an office first role with an expectation to be in the office 4 days a week.

What you'll do

Our bank is dedicated to supporting emerging business owners by giving them access to the vital tools and techniques they need. As an Accelerator Journey Manager, you’ll be right beside these ambitious entrepreneurs, helping them build momentum and turn bold ideas into thriving, scalable businesses.

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.

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

You’ll be instrumental in:

  • Making sure every founder has a smooth, well-supported Accelerator experience by managing the full customer journey from registration to programme delivery
  • Being a visible, approachable presence in the hub, walking the floor and sparking conversations to create an engaged and connected community
