The Role

You'll be the trusted lead on multiple strategic branding accounts at once - owning delivery across the full lifecycle, protecting the quality of the work, and holding the commercial steer that turns ambitious brands into long-term, growing relationships.

Day-to-day, that means translating client business objectives into creative solutions, leading senior stakeholders through presentations that secure buy-in, and spotting the expansion opportunities that grow an account rather than just service it. You'll work directly with the creative team to solve problems in real time, and you'll mentor junior account handlers, setting the standard others work to.

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.
