About The Role

We are looking for a bright, committed, and passionate Associate Consultant, with fluent written and spoken Mandarin and English language skills to join our team.

You will be an expert on Chinese culture, be creative, self-aware, and able to draw on personal experiences to have authentic conversations and discussions with Chinese consumers, colleagues, and our clients.

Together with lead Consultants, you will be responsible for handling and delivering client projects by conducting analysis, writing presentations, and converting community conversations into clear client recommendations. This is not a ‘back-room’ role: we are looking for someone to support the lead Consultant in building and developing the client relationship from day one. This role is a perfect stepping-stone to develop consultancy skills in the world of branding, research, and innovation.

Responsibilities

Research:

  • Moderating communities: engage community members – consumers of a specific client brand, steer discussions, and probe consumer comments to drive relevant insight.
  • Designing research activities for communities which will generate the right responses to meet the client’s brief: ideation sessions, brainstorms, surveys, blogs, and live online workshops.
  • Conducting qualitative analysis of the activities to understand the ‘what’ and the ‘why’ behind what consumers say and do.
  • Desk research.

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.
