- Set up and manage client workflows within Sprinklr or similar social media management platforms.
- Monitor team performance, quality, response times, engagement and agreed client KPIs.
- Produce and present weekly and monthly client reporting, translating performance data into clear insights and recommendations.
- Lead regular client meetings, performance reviews and strategic conversations.
- Ensure Community Management teams consistently follow client tone of voice, escalation processes and moderation guidelines.
- Coordinate onboarding and training for new clients and Community Management teams.
- Identify emerging trends, risks, engagement opportunities and areas for improvement across client communities.
- Manage account resourcing, utilisation and budgets to ensure projects operate efficiently.

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.
