Blinds and Curtains Installer

A Flexible Opportunity That Works Around You

Imagine working for yourself, close to home, at your pace, around your lifestyle and commitments. Our network of over 1200 local Advisors enjoy these benefits, alongside great earnings.

Hillarys, established over 50 years ago, remains the UK’s leading provider of window furnishings solutions with an annual turnover of £250m. We’re still enjoying strong growth and looking for more Advisors to join our team.

Our Advisors visit customers at home to advise on and measure for a wide range of products solutions. Once manufactured and delivered, they return to install for a beautiful finish every time.

If this is unlike anything you’ve done before that’s ok - most of our self-employed Advisors started from the same position and have gone on to run successful Hillarys businesses for many years with our support - we are the experts after all. If you have a great personality, are approachable, a good communicator and care about great Service, you’re already halfway there.

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.
